The only somewhat dangerous part of NoMa is on the North Capitol side of things. When the homeless encampments were under the underpasses that could also occasionally see an incident.
Given that the encampments are gone, and you’re multiple blocks from North Capitol with no reason to be close to that part at night, you’re fine.
As someone who’s lived in that part of town for multiple years and watched it change, I’d say it’s nearly as safe as DuPont circle now, for the average person. I mean your apartment is right between an REI, a gay brewery, a planned parenthood, and an elementary school. This isn’t the hood people make it out to be, it’s thoroughly yuppie.
