I would like to find out if its possible to live in DC area without car?
it's quite doable. But it's a lot easier to live in DC without a car so as long as you are renting an apartment within the district. If you're out in the immediate VA/MD suburbs you're gonna be doing a lot of walking and carrying groceries.
u should move to the park morton apts. its REALLY cheap and its real close to the georgia ave-petworth station lls. i live in columbia heights so its kinda close.
ok, i have lived in the city for a minute and i would not recommend coming to the district w/o a vechile unless you find a place somewhere in the vicinity of downtown, u street, adams morgan, or dupont circle. if you don't mind seating on the bus or metro with groceries, household items, etc., then i guess you can come to the city w/o a car. you can definitely find a place for $750 in the city, but not near the metro. a friend of mine, who recently moved to arlington, found numerous places from 750-1000. look up and down columbia pike. its out there, you just have to look.
FWIW, I moved to downtown Silver Spring a week ago haven't used my car since I moved in (8 days and counting).
