Curbed has explored the heart of hipster-dom, traveled to the professional domains on the Orange Line, hit up booming Bethesda, and swept through the hoppin' hoods of Near NE, SW, and SE. And for our next Least Expensive list, we gracefully peruse the upper-crust neighborhood of Georgetown. Home to many of DC's (and the country's) movers-and-shakers, this is a land of silver spoons and gold-plated real estate. While there are certainly deals to be had, remember: This is still Georgetown.
