Modern DC is a tourist town with a lot to see and do for fans of visiting teams so it will never go back to the old days.
Also consider that DC was a shithole( sorry) during the Redskins glory years. All I knew about DC growing up was that it was the murder capital of the US and the mayor smoked crack. It wasn't the safest place to visit back in the day.

The tourist areas around the monuments and museums were as safe to visit then as they are now. The big difference now is that large swaths of the city that were shit-holes then are now very desirable places to live and hang out (Navy Yard).
