| If we are talking DC...Kalorama. Lived in an apartment there before kids and loved it. No way we could afford it now. |

| Georgetown, definitely. Every time I'm down there I fantasize about moving there when the kids go to college. |

| Exactly where we live now, downtown DC in a rowhouse. When we retire we're moving back to Manhattan but to Chelsea not the Upper West Side where we use to live. |

| I loved living in Dupont Circle and would probably go back there. |

Everyone I know who lived there with kids was very happy! |

I'd live on Capitol Hill. I also like H Street NE and U Street, but I'm not the biggest fan of the green line and H Street NE is not metro-friendly. Ideally, I'd have a small, cute rowhouse walking distance to a metro station.
I could (just barely) afford that now, but can't afford private schools and I didn't want to deal with the charter school/lottery administrative crap. |

| Georgetown - but on the Dupont side near Rock Creek. Lived there years ago and loved it! |

We have dogs, so I don't see condo living working for us. Maybe a rowhouse somewhere and a weekend home elsewhere for the difference in price between the rowhouse and our SFH + tuition. And my sedan would be traded in for a convertible.  Glover Park, Cleveland Park, Georgetown.
