While it seems implausible to  live in a home while it was being leased to someone else there are families doubled/tripled up to make ends meet and that can be claimed on DC residency.

How do you define primary? I have a friend who in my mind a built a child custody schedule with the best internet of their child in mind. The kid is with her an equal amount of time as with the father. She lives in DC. Father in Takoma, MD. By design, their homes are within walking distance, roughly a mile. She tried the immersion school lottery for two years with no luck.  After striking out at the DCPCS lottery, father enrolled the kid in Takoma PArk elementary using his address. By right, the kid could have attended either DC or MOCO public schools. Oh and they take turns every other year as to who will claim the kid on the tax return. [/quote]
