[quote=Anonymous]Capitol Hill is a possiblity!  Check the website of Yarmouth Realty, which sometimes lists 1 bedrooms for under $1500.  You might be able to be in-zone for a great school, plus close enough to walk to Navy Yard, plus in a reasonably safe neighborhood.  http://yarmouthmanagement.com/today.htm

You should also checkout the websites of the major property management companies in DC, which have buildings all over the city at varying prices:  Bernstein Management, Daro, Chatel, Fred A Smith, Borger.

If you stay on the Metro Green Line, then you may be able to get closer to your dream of being car-free, since you can metro to work in Navy Yard.  You could live in Columbia Heights or Petworth, where you should be able to find a 1-bedroom for around $1500 if you look hard enough.  Both have their share of safety concerns, but are getting better every day.  For Petworth, you generally want to stay very close to the Metro station or north or southwest of it; southeast  of it (Park View) is still pretty sketch, imo.

Another option might be Waterfront in SW, which would let you walk easily to work.

Good luck!  Feel free to post craigslist ads here that you're interested in, and I can let you know what I think.
