What is unsaid is that these crimes are committed by Negro youth. Capitol Hill is not too far away from some pretty bad neighborhoods. The youth are making incursions into the more upscale Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Other way around. Gentrification is pushing the good neighborhoods further out.

Used to be it wasnt a good idea to go past 4th and Penn SE (Tune Inn). Or maybe 6th and Penn (Mr. Henry’s, iirc).

8th was definitely no-go, although there were amusing stories of reverse muggings by Marines from the 8th and I barracks. 8th is now firmly gentrified.
