    You are pretty. How I think about living here in the D.C. area? I've lived here since 1982 and I think this area was better back then than it is now. You are right people that live in this area complain about the traffic or the weather. Why? I don't know. As far as the weather goes summers defantley not as bad as down south. I've been down in Charlotte a lot and I've been there during the summer too. In Charlotte during the summer it gets hot as all get out and at night it gets more muggy down in Charlotte then it does here.

  • @sterling7178

    Lived in DC for years, and it would benefit my business if I still lived there. But I just can't. Here is the other side of things. And yes, if you are a young single person who likes to socially drink, DC is fine. But the issues with it are the traffic, the people, the tourist, the smell, and the cost of living.
    The cost of living in DC is unbelievable for the lack of value. It's similar to the west coast. I live in a 3k square foot home on 20+ acres in Naperville(one of the nicest places in the US) for less than my 1200sq ft 2br 1ba DC apartment cost. Commuting to work seems to take an hour from anywhere in the city. Traffic is always a nightmare. And the people...Snobby rich white liberal elites. The worst sort. The people are just rude. Ecocentric is the best word I can find for it. And you can feel the racism. People say the south is racist. In the south, if you walk by somebody of a different race you typically wave or tip you cap. The people are nice to each other. In DC, people of the opposite race try and stare you down. It's just not a pleasant place to live or work. Then again, aren't all big cities terrible?
