I really like Capitol Hill, and my husband and I looked at houses there before settling on a place in more-in-our-price-range Brookland. We had some nice neighbors in Brookland too, but we weren't even there a year before this new job whisked us off to Paris. But my favorite part about living in Brookland is that I was more or less in the neighborhood of the school I taught in, which contributed to my involvement in the school community.

Our little village within this city is the friendliest, most connected neighborhood I've ever lived in. Come to Capitol Hill in DC if you want to experience an organic sense of community.
