Reply to Did anyone just hear 8 or so gunshots/fireworks in Georgetown near Volta Park? by blankspace215
A few years ago, just after July 4th, there were 57 shots in our alley . 16th/U St NW
Our bedroom had 2 windows facing in that direction.
I woke up and said OMG bullets and hubby said probably just left over fireworks.
So back to sleep. The next day we saw that a bullet entered our bedroom and got stuck in the bathroom stud.
Our neighbors downstairs were up around 2 am sitting on a couch . The bullet entered through the kitchen window , crossed 30' and exited front window .
Only the cat noticed.

Take a look at Room & Board .
With contemporary or mid-century furniture .
Or on Craigslist, I found great stuff recently .
Then it's a question of a few pieces on shelves or some art on the wall.
You can get inspiration online like on Pinterest

Fold them first as in pant legs together or sleeves tucked in . Then put on bed or table and roll them tightly. Saves space too

I don't remember, but at one point, it was mathematically impossible for Trump to win, I think

During the Trump years, dating was I think what changed the most . For the first time, people were putting in their profiles that had no interest in MAGA .
Other than that, I didn't notice anything. We had a very bad image overseas, and every week, there was a new horror story

You can roll clothes . This prevents them from wrinkling

Rents are pretty much the same in any central neighborhood. The only maybe lower up Connecticut or Wisconsin Ave

Yes. And many guys like cougars + MILFs

YES natural markets. Several locations. Whole Foods, too , maybe . In the past, they used to at P St. NW, but I'm not sure if they still do.

The point is safety. Starbucks would not put their $$$ in a dangerous area . I'm not a client of Walmart or Starbucks

If you are using Airbnb, the whole point are the reviews !
I'm an Airbnb user big-time and was a Superhost with 4 Airbnbs at 16th/U. Across the street from Starbucks
My advice is to check if an address is safe. Look at the nearest Starbucks. Should be a block away

The piece on Adam's Morgan explains the crimes against several businesses. The title itself was how residents feel less safe because of the spike in crimes .
It also mentions the meeting attended by a few hundred residents.
But they show the opinion of others who don't feel unsafe.
They aren't ignoring crimes that happened. Most have been against businesses + stolen packages from buildings.
