Dupont, Logan Circle, Shaw, Adams
Morgan are great places to live if you want to be more downtown. Capitol Hill and Cleveland/Woodley Park are nice if you want more residential vibes. It's great to be near metro lines (esp depending on your commute) but don't sleep on the bus bc it'll get you a lot more places. And if need some green space, proximity to the Potomac or Rock Creek Park is amazing.
The arts & food are wonderful, so many free things to do, people from all over the world, don't buy into the idea that it's all politics
