You are both right about the condition of the roads and the cost of the real estate.  Property taxes are also very high.  (my last house was $7,000 a year).  I think Hodja is right about Marion Barry.  He ruined the district.  I had an NCO that worked for me.  Her husband's family worked for the DC government - and she used to tell me tales of mink coats and diamonds being given for Christmas gifts by her husband's family.  Then there was the woman that worked in an office where they were giving property tax and she was paying herself.  The only reason she got caught is because her niece who was doing her banking, got fresh with the bank clerk.  They started auditing the account and caught on to it and reported it.  Her "take" was in the millions and had been going on for years.  She was supposed to get second signatures and never did.  They were never audited and no one every caught on.  That is the DC government in a nutshell.
