Adding some extra things here in this comment! My previous post I added a comment that said something along the lines of “please be nice I know y’all hate these posts haha” and a comment here that said “thank you!” was downvoted so I will do my best moving forward to not piss y’all off lmao

Here are the positives!

• Currently at Baked & Wired and these are great! Very glad I listened to recommendations to come here instead of a more popular touristy spot.
• I enjoyed hearing SO many different languages spoken
• Everyone was so willing to offer suggestions and give thorough advice on where to live and what to see while here. They weren’t bothered by questions and in fact welcomed a lot more than I even had!
• Went to Stan’s DC and loved the energy there and I feel like that’s where we really experienced the “Chocolate City” vibes with such a lively vibe
• The buildings are so pretty and I loved that they were not skyscraper heights
• Any folks experiencing homelessness were also very kind to me when approaching
• Blown away by how walkable this city really is. That was my main reason for moving!

*also noting that my comment about men was for me and how they behaved towards other women as well! certainly not trying to flatter myself!
