Other than being the capital of the U.S., D.C. is known for having a predominantly Black population (not counting those that live in the outside suburbs, but go to work in the city). From this large Black population, D.C. has developed a very distinctive culture including its Go-Go music, mambo sauce, and style of dress for the younger population (a style that is very different from other metro areas that imitate NYC for the most part). And, like many other large metro area, the people here have a their own slang and accent, one that is cross-bred from both the South and the North. Despite the recent developement projects going on there, the SouthEast section of DC is popularly known as the most dangerous area of the town.

And our own style of music,(go-go). Overall one of the best cities to live in. Filled with nightlife, packed with nightclubs. And one of the highest AIDS rates in America (35.5 per 100,000.)

A slightly odd, predominantly black city which happens to be the capital of the US. Always getting blamed for bad Congressional decisions yet has no Representative. Overrun by stupid tourists who treat it like Mecca but are dying inside, home to lame landmarks and hot as hell during summertime. Not quite worth the trip but home to those who live there.
