DC doesn't feel southern at all and it doesn't feel like the North East either. If you haven't been in DC in the last 10 years then you won't recognize it.
DC has a unique feel and vibe and that's not southern or northern and that's what's so awesome about it. However, the fast pace of DC is definitely a Northeastern characteristic.
DC has all the characteristics of a NE city. Fast Paced; Transportation dependent; Subways, Urban; Centralized large downtown core; Very walkable; Rowhomes stretching for miles and miles and History. Some of the neighborhoods are jewels while some are very gritty.

Except its not really in the North East, its south of the Mason Dixon line, has SERIOUS NC cultural connections, and is really a Mid Atlantic state.
Is DC really the NE? Seems to me its a Mid-Atlantic city.
The Northeast is divided between New England and the Mid-Atlantic. Technically New York, Philly, Baltimore and DC are all part of the Mid-Atlantic Region.

yea but people in DC favor the south more in culture and music. not to mention the way people dress in DC are similar to ATL
DC/MD feels a little similar to ATL to me, maybe because I was in the ghetto. DC is the best of both worlds to me.
