Is there a law in Washington, DC saying that you can’t have bars on a ground floor apartment windows?
I’m about to move into a ground level apartment (1st floor not in the basement) and come to find out there are no bars on the ground level windows. I live in NE Washington, DC and my neighborhood is not that bad when it comes to crime, but I really don’t feel safe without bars on my windows being that I’m a 20 something single female. I asked the manager and she told me that it’s now against the law to puts bars on the ground level windows in DC. However, some of the other buildings in the same complex have bars. I ask her why did some of the other building have them and some did not. She replied that the one’s that have bars had them on there for years and years. I’m not really convinced on this. If the management is not going to provide them I am more than willing to go to home depot and buy some.
