[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think DC is pretty attractive to young professionals. However, one area where it is lacking is in the creative field. DC has a lot of interesting stuff, but much of it is more middle of the road or even stodgy. A little more edge culturally would probably be attractive to a lot of younger people--that is something that draws people to NYC and other cities. [/quote] Yes!!! Transit + more creative culture. It's here in DC, you just have to look hard and be willing to go to sketchier neighborhoods where public transit is less reliable and safe. A vicious cycle. More nightlife, more affordable housing, more cafes and restaurants that are less expensive... and lower crime. My parents were super relieved when I moved to Chicago from DC as a young thing in my 20's.[/quote]
