Reply to Month to month leases? by mansinoodle2
Vacate for a whole month?? And your lease is active? I would recommend calling OTA just to ensure this is all above board.

100% agree. The number of posts that could be a simple Google search have increased quite a lot the last few months. Not sure if the mods are paying attention…

To clarify, this is PAID public parking.

I don’t understand the point of your question, although the irony of posting this on Reddit is strong. Are you against social media or something?

It is worth the money to come a week early and find something in person.

Do NOT pay for anything or send any money unless you've seen a place in person and have a signed lease in hand. There are many scams out there.

Reply to Living in Trinidad/Northeast Washington by [deleted]
I would say the whole city requires a reasonable degree of caution. This particular area requires a higher level, but I do know people who live there and have no issues. It does have a history of crime and violence, but areas change. Check the crime map and decide for yourself.

This is not a government/political sub. It’s a local city sub for people who live in DC. You’re in the wrong place.

Reply to Is it possible to visit all of the Smithsonian museums in a limited time frame? by LeoTheBirb
This doesn't mean anything. What is "visit" to you? If you want to read every exhibit and every sign, you'd need months. So... what does that even mean?

It is under 30 days but not by much. Almost all of us could be told to move from our residences in 30 days unless we own them.

I head about this several weeks ago, so what you’re saying about “little notice” is flat out untrue.

Reply to comment by indecisivewandering in Is renting on a GS5 salary possible? by indecisivewandering
Living with roommates would be essential, and group house here can be very competitive. It's like whole other job interview. If you are very determined, have no debt, and work hard, you could hopefully make it. But do not underestimate the difficulty. There are also a lot of up front costs with moving, so be prepared to have thousands on hand for first month/last month and security deposit, plus all of your moving expenses.

Baltimore is very far if you work in DC. We can’t recommend anywhere without knowing the approximate area in which you’ll be working, but regardless, that is not enough money to live alone. You’d need multiple roommates, in a group house. Also be aware that you’d be eligible for low income housing at that salary. But even at a discounted rate, I think you couldn’t live alone. It’s just not enough money.

I also can't recommend the Anderson House highly enough, as a breathtaking historical mansion.

Reply to Mount Vernon Tour by SurvivorFanatic236
Way more time was spent on the grounds, but also in the very large and nice visitor's center. I'd say it's definitely still worth it even if you can't go in the house. The house tours are timed (at least, they used to be) so you probably only spent 20 mins in the house vs hours on other things.

Reply to Does this subreddit represent the true sentiment DC residents have for their city? by 42beastmode
People that are out and about, living their happy lives are too busy to spend much time on Reddit. Take what you see with a big grain of salt. Everyone’s experience is different living here.

You also need a DC license, if you don’t already have one.
