Planning to move to DC this summer - curious to know what neighborhoods to check out?

Ideally looking for 1 bedroom with a den or 2 bedrooms, new-ish complex (doesn’t have to be brand new just want a nice kitchen/bathroom), and in a good area (things to do nearby, walkable if possible, safe). Willing to pay up to $4,200 (split with boyfriend)

I’d repost this tomorrow during the day. Most, if not everyone, in DC is asleep now.

Thanks! Forget that on California time 😅

Shaw, Adam's Morgan, Navy Yard

Columbia Heights/pet worth area. I’m in Columbia Heights, literally 5 minutes from the metro, target, groceries, etc. my apt is a 1BR w a Den For $2000. It is a little older (chips on cabinets, no nest thermostat) but it’s a building w a receptionist and a gym, new washer, updated appliances.

With your budget, you can be pretty flexible on location. I’d say it depends more what you’re looking for in terms of walkable (just grocery stores/restaurants or going out places?). I’d check out gallery place/Mount Vernon triangle, or Woodley park/DuPont circle

This is going to be my main watch for the next 20+ years so I want to make sure I pick correctly!

What would you pick and why?
