I think you'd be happy in many metro DC neighborhoods, but I also think you're putting too much thought into it.
This was a unique election tho

Lol I love that this was posted non-ironically. This is what you get in DC! ^
We moved across the country to a city that’s considered “very progressive” - and is, it overwhelmingly went to Biden, the entire city council is D - but it’s not half as insane as it was living in DC. The DC progressive wokeness is on another level. I feel like I live in like Fargo having come from DC.
