D.C.’s fastest growing neighborhoods, mapped

This new map, created by ESRI, shows which parts of Washington, D.C. have grown the fastest in the last five years.

According to Greater Greater Washington, the darker the blue on the map, the greater the growth. The pale orange colors indicate either a lack of growth or a decline.

Some of the darkest blues in the city can be seen in NoMa, Navy Yard, and Kent. Some of the palest oranges are found in Foggy Bottom and Fairlawn.
