[quote=Anonymous]The Hill is Ground Zero for middle/upper-middle class families (which is less than 200K AHI) who want to actually live in the city. Yes, there are lots of free amenities for the poor, and of course everything for those to whom money is no object. Capital Hill is the battle ground where the poor and the corrupt city council choose to play out their battles. Upper NW has always been free from this influence, as has Anacostia. Wards 1, 4, and 5 are gentrifying so quickly that the politicians have lost a lot of control. They're riding the tiger now. Hopefully another 10 years can turn this back into a middle class city. For now, like all big cities, it's for the rich and the poor - and if you're in between you learn quickly to be crafty.[/quote]
