[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's all the love for Capital Hill?  It's quiet to the point of boring, and it's got as many babies as dogs.  It's not a great place for a young single at all.  It's only great for 30-something mommies and daddies.[/quote]

Barracks Row has a decent strip of bars and restaurants, plus it's walking distance to Navy Yard and H St, but an English basement in Capitol Hill is significantly cheaper than a luxury apt in Navy Yard and significantly more transit accessible than H St.  Capitol South is less than a 10 minute Metro ride to Metro Center whereas H St. is 20+ minutes on the bus.  Plus lots of young people work on the Hill and walking to work is ideal.

It's also a beautiful area with lots of parks and old growth trees. Believe it or not single people appreciate that stuff too.  One big reason people choose cheap English basements on Capitol Hill over group houses is because it's practically impossible to bring a pet with you to a group house, and a basement in Capitol Hill is only slightly more expensive than a group house in somewhere like U St or Columbia Heights and is incredibly dog-friendly.
