I think there are two separate issues when it comes to crime. Professional criminals can come into a community to burglarize houses when people are at work. These people have cars and can drive into any neighborhood so that can be an issue anywhere. The other issue is crime caused by the people who are your neighbors. This is much more prevalent in the areas with lower priced houses like Dale City, Route 1, and a few of the Lake Ridge neighborhoods. Delinquent teenagers who cause vandalism and break into their neighbors houses and cars. A few years ago we had a problem with a neighbor's teenage son and his friends hanging around and causing trouble. After he grew up and moved out that problem thankfully went away.

I agree with the previous poster who said that the area out on Rippon is nice. We live at the Riverside Station apartments and it is super safe at night and day. Lots of walkers/runners, families, etc. It is very different from the neighborhoods several miles north. Plus it is super close to the Stonebridge shopping area. From our apartment we are a five minute walk to the VRE.

RoxieV must work for the riverside station apartment complex because she has revived three different Woodbridge threads today to tell us it's "super safe" and near this and that.
