I'm not sure about any place called "the valley" in the District, but "Spring Valley" is the extremely affluent area surrounding American University. Aside from the school, it's mostly residental (with residents like ambassadores, senators, and media personalities). So perhaps these teens of which you speak go there because their attending parties and what not at AU. The clean, tidy well patrolled streets with ample parking remind them more of sweet home Fairfax than the urban gridlock of Georgetown and GW, or the "edgey" neighborhoods that surround Howard and Catholic.

Another fun fact about Spring Valley is that it was used by the U.S. Army for ordnance testing during WWI. So, even in the midst of all that money and power, the pool boys, the grass cutters, and the gardners still come across unexploded shells from time to time.

Down in the valley, the valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Hear the wind blow, dear, hear the wind blow;
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow.

Roses love sunshine, violets love dew,
Angels in Heaven know I love you,
Know I love you, dear, know I love you,
Angels in Heaven know I love you.

Build me a castle, forty feet high;
So I can see her as she rides by,
As she rides by, dear, as she rides by,
So I can see her as she rides by.

"If you don't love me, love whom you please,"
"Throw your arms round me, give my heart ease,"
"Give my heart ease, dear, give my heart ease,"
"Throw your arms round me, give my heart ease,"

Write me a letter, send it by mail;
Send it in care of the Birmingham jail,
Birmingham jail, dear, Birmingham jail,
Send it in care of the Birmingham jail.

Roses love sunshine, violets love dew,
Angels in Heaven know I love you,
Know I love you, dear, know I love you,
Angels in Heaven know I love you.
