Review of Washington, District of Columbia

Expensive housing!
Star Rating - 2/1/2008
For a city in which so many government employees work, DC's housing and rental prices are completely ridiculous. There are some neighborhoods near DC that are affordable, but most of them are not safe. To live in a safe neighborhood, I had to live an hour-and-a-half from work.
