How mean you are. Don't dismiss us just because we prefer a little bit of country air in the evening over constant sirens and tourist groups.
I thought about living on 16th and S Street NW for a minute (especially now that they have that Whole Foods right there), but honestly I think it's too stressful downtown to be there ALL the time. I like
Alexandria, but my first choice to live would probably be Takoma Park with its delightfully Bohemian occupants.
It is getting less appealing due to a rise in crime in Takoma Park though, which is a pity. I always pinpointed it as my true home, as I was born there. I picture myself in a little yellow bungalow there (actually I think a grayish eggshell with charcoal shutters is the thing now), composing happily.
For now though,
Virginia is idyllic.
