Historic Georgia Avenue, formerly the Seventh Street Turnpike, was once the transportation route running north into the countryside from Downtown Washington. Along this avenue, Irish, Germans, Italians, Greeks, and Eastern European immigrants and entrepreneurs built their communities.
More recently, communities of Caribbean, Latino, and African people have added their cultures to this mix. Today, with revitalizing underway, Georgia Avenue is a busy commercial street that serves a series of varied neighborhoods along its five-mile route to the District line.

There's a large residential area, middle class, across the street from the hospital. Two-story row houses, most of them pretty nice--not great, but not seedy. Go a couple of blocks back and there are some really NICE homes. It's a residential area. Takoma Elementary School is not far away. People park on the streets--nice cars, too. The Freepers set up in front of a church parking lot every Friday night--not a crack house.
