[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, there isn't really a Silver Lake equivalent in DC (unfortunately). Check out Mount Pleasant, Columbia Heights, Shaw, Logan Circle, houses near the 14th Street Corridor, Petworth, and Kalorama, see if any are close enough. Takoma Park is a decent suggestion, too.

If you have specific rental listings you want some opinions on, feel free to post them - we can let you know what the neighborhood's like.

These are the neighborhoods you should check out. Mt. Pleasant and Columbia Heights are great--but pretty expensive. You might be able to get a nice 2 bedroom there for $3000.

I was going to suggest Shaw or Takoma Park. Takoma has a DC and a MD side--they share a border.  Takoma DC does not have great schools beyond elementary school, and that may be stretching it.  Takoma Park MD has the funkiest vibe of any place in DC.  It's also gorgeous. I am afraid that in Logan, Dupont, and Kalorma, you'll find a lot of boring yuppie families (who are probably perfectly nice and make decent neighbors).

Definitely don't rent without seeing places first. Good luck! [/quote]
