Bethesda is good if you are married and with kids but otherwise I would suggest living in someplace with better logistics or closer to colleges (and college chicks). You can live near college park or in georgetown. Presently there are a lot of city neighbourhoods that are becoming gentrified( i.e. cleaned up) and they tend to be cheap as well. If logistics are good then I would suggest to live in such a neighbourhood.
I would pick Bethesda over College Park. You are a few quick stops away on the redline from American University and downtown DC. I went to Friendship Heights and Bethesda Row for the first time 2 weekends ago. Talent level was pretty good. Not as good as Arlington, but nothing to complain about.
If you wanted to save a few bucks, yea sure you could head to Capitol Hill, Bloomingdale, Petworth, Columbia Heights, wherever - but you are still better off spending the same money on a smaller place in Dupont or Logan. a085 is coming from Moscow. I think he would better enjoy himself in the more international DuPont vs H Street. Divorco said money is not really an object so again, DuPont, Logan, G-Town for him.
Agreed. It really boils down to logistics: live as close as you can to the places you like to frequent. Makes it easier to get a girl back to your place later on.
North of Dupont near AdMo is the best area, IMO. You can walk to Woodley, AdMo, CoHi, U St and Dupont in under 20 minutes.
If you live near H st, you're only going to hang out near H St. Same for Glover Park and Georgetown... I could go on...

lol yea, there's a name for it... I can't remember the last time anyone used it though!
