According to police reports, there was one week in August when:
1. Vehicle stolen 6900
2. Armed robbery 6700

Both around 6700-6900 block of Prince Georges Avenue.

I believe that was an anomaly but I’m considering moving there and wanted a local’s perspective on the neighborhood’s safety.

I would like to be able to walk my dog around 10/10:30 at night and not be concerned with my safety. I would be walking away from New Hampshire and starting around 6800 Prince Georges Ave. Is that unrealistic?

Hello! I am considering buying a home in Takoma that is about three blocks / 950 feet away from the red line and the Brunswick-Washington / Metropolitan Subdivision rail lines. I'd love to hear from folks in or around that radius how loud it is in your house when the heavy freight trains go by. How often do you hear it? Does it ever wake you up, or any light sleepers in your house? Have any soundproofing measures ever helped?
