Washington DC: The Murder Capital of the US
The URL to the map I created can be found here.
I did not run into any problems while creating my map. I actually found it to be very useful! By creating this map, I am able to see where the different neighborhoods, parks, etc are in relation to one another. I also found a lot of information on these areas. For example, on my map, I labeled Adams Morgan neighborhood. I learned that this was once a dangerous neighborhood in the DC area. I also learned about the Rock Creek Park, which is a public park located in DC that I never heard of before.
My topic is focused on how DC was once the murder capital of the United States. Therefore, I added locations on my map that were once considered dangerous. I also added places like the justice department and United States Capitol because they have extreme importance when talking about crime.
