“Front desk and management are excellent. Responding immediately. I didn’t get the apartment I expected because they never let me check it before I signed the contract which was a disappointment but any way it’s nice and pleasant for me. They told me I could move to another apartment tough still on the waiting list (unconvinced yet). Wonderful terrace.”

Most suitable for congressional staffers, government professionals, and history enthusiasts who can justify premium rates for prestigious addresses and architectural significance despite urban parking challenges and premium pricing.

Here’s how Washington ranks on:

Overview of Findings

Apartment List has released Washington, DC’s results from the third annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. This survey, which drew on responses from over 45,000 renters, provides insight on what states and cities must do to meet the needs of 111 million American renters nationwide.

"Washington, DC renters expressed general satisfaction with the city overall," according to Apartment List. "However, ratings varied greatly across different categories, indicating that even though renters love Washington, DC, some aspects can be better."

Key findings in Washington, DC include the following:

  • Washington, DC renters gave their city an A- overall.

  • The highest-rated categories for Washington, DC were jobs and career opportunities and public transit, which both received A+ grades.

  • The areas of concern to Washington, DC renters are affordability (D) and state and local taxes (C).

  • Millennial renters are very satisfied with their city, giving it an overall rating of A.

  • Washington, DC did relatively well compared to other cities nationwide, including New York, NY (C+), Los Angeles (C+) and Chicago, IL (B-).

  • "I love the options of things to do, from art to sports. But the high cost of living can make it hard to enjoy the amenities." – Jaryn E.
  • "DC is amazing because each neighborhood has its own vibe and you’re able to feel like you’re in a smaller city instead of a large metropolis." – Allison T.
  • "I love the free museums and that there’s always something to do. But the rent is too expensive for the quality of the apartments." – Kathryn C.
