Upper NW neighborhoods I.e. Forest Hills, kent, mass ave heights, Berkeley, foxhall, palisades.

Cleveland Park or Chevy Chase (DC or MD).

Did nobody actually read the question???

Hint: the question isn't "where would you live if you had no money constraints?". There are a few other qualifiers.

AU Park.

"Correct answers" - hilarious. You must be the poster who thinks everyone secretly really wants to live in a large, new house.

I live on Capitol Hill, not in Dupont--still central DC, though. And I know every one of my neighbors (and even like most of them). And there's nothing like rats, property crime, and school insecurity to create a bond between neighbors.

It really is a great place to live, though. I thank my lucky stars every day that we stumbled onto our house. (Mostly because it was all we could afford.)

Haha, because Chevy Chase is known for large, new construction? I agree with these neighborhood recommendations though.

Capitol Hill is not Dupont, though.

Just like, Brookland is not Cleveland park, even though many of the kit bungalows were built in the same 1920s era.

We're in N. Arlington, walking to Ballston Metro, and the people here are super-nice. In fact, we were invited to the neighbor's annual block party in the cul-de-sac the day we moved in--here's the catch…we're not even living the cul-de-sac, we're across the street and off to the side. They had to make a real effort to invite us because they had to get my email from our landlord; we hadn't moved in yet. That's how nice they are.

They are families with young kids, families with teenagers, older couples whose kids are in college, a gay couple with no kids. Dog people or could be (in that dog people stereotype)

Obviously there are many people who love their different neighborhoods so you really can't go wrong, can you?
