We have a 2.5 year old and are looking to apply for PK3 through the lottery.

We are relocating to DC and saw some homes with these in-bound schools. Does anyone have any experience with any of these?
JO Wilson - seemed impossible to get into without the sibling preference
LaSalle Backus - didn't have much of a waitlist but it seemed some parents didn't like it?
Bunker Hill Elementary School

We haven't found many homes in other areas in our price range.

Are there other neighborhoods we should be looking at with rent between $2500-3000 for a 2-3 bedroom? These were all in
Fort Totten
Michigan Park
Capitol Hill
