For some reason, hardly anyone posts decent pics of Washington, D.C. and its large metro area. This has to change. :-)

Facebook and Apple are not even in the neighboring county. They're not part of this debate.

The District of Columbia has approximately 600,000 residents and its Metro area has around 5.4 million. That means that 4.8 million people do not live in a neighborhood that looks anything like Adams Morgan, Capitol Hill, Georgetown, or Columbia Heights.
