I strongly prefer to stay in Washington D.C.

What's so good about DC unless you are a politics junkie?

  • It's a reasonably sized city (giving me theatre, foreign films, lectures, etc)
  • Plus public transportation (I don't know how to drive)
  • Short trip on Amtrak to see my family in NY
  • I am a politics junkie
  • So are a lot of my friends, so the plurality of people I care about most all live here
  • As a result, I get to do group movie nights, DnD, parliamentary debates, babysitting with them

Also, I'd bet the kind of person I ultimately want to marry is most likely to want to live in DC, too.

A lot of free museums, too.

Interesting. I'd imagine that, except for Federal politics, most of these needs would be better served some place like NY, but I see what you mean.
