What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Adams Morgan Washington

I love the neighborhood I love in. There is a heavy LGBT+ presence, and the area is quite supportive of human rights.

I like that there's a park with a recreation center right by me. I also like that there's a dog park nearby. That there's easy access to stores and restaurants

I like to live in this neighborhood because I can go to some stores by walking, I don't need a car to go to stores.

It is very walkable. It has a unique blend of cultural restaurants and establishments. There are grocery stores nearby.

It's close to a lot of activities and places, like bars and restaurants. It's very walkable. I can walk or bike almost anywhere I need to go. The parking is easy but you don't need a car.
