UndergradDad Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 How safe is the area around Georgetown and also the area around Catholic University of America? I know Washington is listed as high in violent crime but didn’t know if all areas are bad.

I know Washington is listed as high in violent crime but didn’t know if all areas are bad. Everyone has different sensitivities to crime, but I wouldn't sweat it for a second with GU and CUA. Georgetown is very well off old-money neighborhood and tourist hotspot that may get a tinge of sketchiness in certain spots at night, but overall is an extremely safe area. CUA is near Brookland which is an up-and-coming pseudo-suburb and is a bit sketchier compared to G'town, especially depending where you're at in the neighborhood, but definitely not that bad overall and safer than most of the city. It looks like NeighborhoodScout's crime map corroborates my intuition.
