re: Washington D.C. Suggestions?

be prepared to pay a lot...

I first lived in Foggy Bottom then Old Town...Old Town was much cheaper. Logan and Scott Circle were coming back when I left...not sure how much it continued though...but the area around Convention Center went from ghetto to nice quickly.

Look around Dupont too...very safe, but pricey. There is a lot of hot arse for the taking in G'town bars, which is a short walk to Foggy Bottom.

Glover Park is the hot new area where my friends now live, but no metro stop...just buses.

Woodley/Adams Morgan area is a bit cheaper than the areas mentioned above.
