    "People hanging in front yards and on porches, farmers market at eastern market and events at the congressional cemetery."
  • Trulia User
    "Great neighborhood to raise kids. Lots of parks, outdoor theatre, block parties, shopping close by. Area is under development with lots of new restaurants and stores."
  • Prop. M.
    "Stadium is the last Metro stop before orange blue silver lines split apart and go in different directions. This means if you are commuting from Downtown DC is easy, you can jump on any Blue/Orange/Silver train headed East. If you live further out then you need to wait to get on the right blue, silver or orange train and getting home could possibly take much, much longer."
  • Timothy J.
    "The Harris Teeter grocery near Penn and Potomac has closed, but the new Safeway at 14th and D St. SE and Trader Joe's at Eastern Market are awesome"
  • Trulia User
    "I work from home. If commuting to Virginia from this neighborhood it would be pretty bad. Within DC and using public transit one would probably have an easy to normal DC commute."
  • Shannon H.
    "Street parking is the worst, so it’s best to have a garage or drive through. It’s super inconvenient to not be able to park in front of or near your house at times"
  • Richard C. O.
    "Street festivals occur during the Summer months and there is at least one parade that occurs down East Capital toward the Capital."
  • Rachael N.
    "It feels historical, quiet, and residential and has great parks- but it’s still w/in walking distance to shops, restaurants, bike trails (river), freeway entrances, and mass transit. The best place all around that I’ve lived in this city. "
  • Rachael N.
    "Residential family feel, historic homes yet in the city. Many parks and metro accessible. Near Anacostia River Trail too!"
  • Prest D.
    "The way houses are built and the people around make this place unique."
  • Quinn B.
    "They would like it because there's many places to walk your dog."
  • Rashid A.
    "The unique part of Barney Circle is it's very beautiful. The people who I've been in contact from there are very talkative and nice."
  • Rashid A.
    "Commuting and traveling is a breeze -- no traffic or interruption from anybody."
  • Rashid A.
    "It's a safe and free playzone for all ages."
  • Lchilds7612
    "Can't wait til I move my family to a great community. Looking forward to purchasing our first home. "
  • Elaine H.
    "I love the original features in this house! I love the proximity to so many amenities! I love the view! And I really love the great family-friendly, dog-friendly -- just plain friendly -- neighbors and neighborhood!"
  • Tifpotter
    "Capitol Hill East is an upcoming neighborhood. It has excellent police presence, a bagel bakery, new bars, Harris Teeter, and a charming old school feel about it. Honestly, I don't want to live anywhere else. "
