[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think any rational case can be made for this being a 'great' city. The population is far too transient to have any sort of character beyond being the nation's capital - the weather (this summer aside) is marginal at best, the people are self obsessed and hyper competitive and there is extremely little work life balance to be found. Also throw in that traffic is terrible and it is a dreadful sports town. [/quote] Everyone says that Washington is a transient town, but I don't think it is, any more than most other places. Some families leave DC for the suburbs, and some people move away entirely (as some do after a few years in NY). Political jobs tend to create some transition, but to the extent that staffers or appointees move to Washington from elsewhere, a large number stay and do other things once their time in the government is over.
