Ft Washington is nice. Wash Heights had a very low crime rate last year. Area as a whole is leaps and bounds better than it was late 80's/early 90's. I grew up there during that time. It's like two different worlds.
Most of the crime in the area is drug-related. So there really isn't much to worry about unless your a street pharmacist.

Agreed. The worst of the heights is Broadway-Amsterdam.
I lived in Washington Heights for a while with no safety problems. Bring your Spanish-English dictionary though if you plan on frequenting the local businesses... you will need it. Also bring some earplugs, WH has a well-deserved reputation as New York's noisiest hood.
Yeah I meant it as Broadway to Amsterdam..including St Nick and Audobon.
