[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is “suburban” but not a “suburb” because it is part of the District. If DC became a state and was viewed as having different cities, though, it would definitely seem like a suburb. I think the transition from city to suburban in upper NW happens somewhere around Woodley or Cleveland Park.[/quote] This.[/quote] This. There a peculiar subset of people whi is very invested in being able to say, "I live in the city!!" even though their daily experience is the same as their neighbors in Bethesda or Chevy Chase, half a mile to the North. They dislike *any* suggestion that they live in anythign less than the full urban experience. Which is, of course, ridiculous. They don't live in Columbia Heights, or Trinidad, or H St., or Logan Circle. [/quote]
