>In DC, I might pay $2500 to live in a decent 1BR in a hip part of the downtown area.

Suddenly, we are talking about hip part of the downtown for people earning close to minimal wage?

What is wrong with this apartment for $925[0] 975? [1]

Not sure if you're being humorous or probably just not familiar with DC. Both of those cozy apartments are in SE DC. I'm being a 100% serious when I say that if I moved to those apartments, as a white guy, I'd almost certainly be a victim of violent crime within a few months. I wouldn't even get off the metro in those neighborhoods.

It is literally the worst area of DC.
