Overview of Findings

"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.

  • "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.
