Washington, DC
Apartments
Blending historic monuments to the past with policymakers of the present and future,
Washington, DC and its nearby suburbs in Virginia and Maryland are home to the federal
government, the most trade associations in the U.S., and nearly 20 million tourists
a year. The Washington, DC area serves as world headquarters for U.S. Airways, Marriott,
Amtrak, Gannett News, Mobil Oil, MCI Telecommunications, and the International Monetary
Fund. Trend spotters enjoy the city’s upscale boutiques in Georgetown, while bargain
hunters and collectors can be found amidst the Bohemian outdoor markets and antique
shops. An eclectic and innovative mix of restaurants can be found downtown, as locals
dine out more than other residents in the country. To work off a great meal, many
residents walk around the city’s unique neighborhoods, almost all of which are accessible
by Metrorail or Metrobus. Surrounding suburbs in Northern Virginia and Maryland
offer their own mix of charm, culture, and unique lifestyle.
