A commonly used name to describe the City of
Federal Way, Washington. Routine gunfire and stabbings occur on almost a nightly basis, which is nothing to say of armed robberies, burglaries, and stolen cars. The epicenter for criminal activity used
to be Pacific Highway. While Pacific Highway is still dangerous, the Park 16, subsidized housing project, and others currently being constructed are now ground zero for lawless behavior. Contrary to
empirical evidence related to the introduction of these criminal hot spots, the City's mayor still believes that the crime wave in the City is being imported in from Tacoma.
