Great location, pet friendly

I moved into my current apartment about a year and a half ago and I never want to leave! Though it is a small space (approximately 850 sq. ft) it is split between two levels which makes it feel larger, and the floor plan of the main floor is very open. It is great for hosting guests, because if i am in the kitchen, I am still also in the living room with my guests. The bathroom is huge and beautiful with a shower and a bath and all the appliances are very modern. We have a spiral staircase that I love. The location os very conducive to a 20-something lifestyle as we are walking distance to U Street and Adams Morgan and a short distance away from Dupont. We have great local restaurants and bars, there is a grocery store within walking distance, 2 metro stops both about .7 miles away and a dog park. Our building is also very pet friendly, and the neighbors are very friendly as well.

Lovely apartment

I have lived in my Columbia Heights apartment for 1.5 years now and I LOVE it. I previously lived for 3 three years in the Palisades in a crappy apartment with terrible management. What an upgrade! The rent is steep, but doable. No amenities though which is a bummer, but there is a local pool open during the summer only a block away. The location is amazing. Walking distance to both the U Street metro (and all the bars/restaurants/night life attractions of U Street) and Columbia Heights (not to mention the Target and Giant there) but removed enough from the hustle to be quiet and feel neighborhood-y.

So far, I love living in columbia heights. I live at the southern-most part, so I'm in walking distance to many neighborhoods (logan circle, adams morgan, shaw). There are many restaurants, shops, and bars that are close by. I also love living so close to the college of medicine. I ride my bike everyday and it only takes me 5 minutes each way.

I love this neighborhood, there are grocery stores and a Target in walking distance, as well as tons of locally owned restaurants and bars. It's also close to Rock Creek Park. There are three farmers markets within walking distance.

Vibrant, diverse, hub of the city. Walking distance to world-class restaurants. Several grocery store options nearby. Walkable to nightlife (Adams Morgan, U Street/Shaw, 14th).

Overall neighborhood is pretty good, the apartment has had 24 hour security as well which has made me feel safe as well

Columbia Heights has a lot of great neighbors. There is a lot of crime though especially if you get closer to the Metro station where shootings occur frequently. This apartment building is far enough away from that are so it feels safe though. It can also be really loud if you're in the crowded parts. But people are friendly.

I really like the Columbia Heights, because it feels much more like the authentic "DC" than the Foggy Bottom area. It's close to the 14th Street corridor and also Adams Morgan corridor where there are a lot of restaurants/bars/shops, but still has a neighborhood feel to it. It's a little bit farther from campus, but the 2 mile walk to/from school is my built-in exercise/decompressing time for the day. I really like having physical separation from school, and there are bus several bus lines within close proximity, as well as a metro stop nearby. Some of the most affordable housing in DC (that is compatible with having class in GW) is in the Columbia Heights area. There are many "group houses" that often pop up on Craigslist where you can pay a more reasonable amount for a bedroom in a house with other roommates.

Easy access to Malcolm X/Meridian Hill Park. Most restaurants are a 10-15 minute walk away. Metro does not give easy access to GW, it is faster to bike
Reviewed by DC Resident living at 1429 Girard Street
Nowhere else in DC is there such a melting pot of culture, food and things to do. Everything is in walking distance and there is no need for a car. If your are a foodie your a few blocks from U street or Adams Morgan,
