I love living in the city (no kids) so schools aren’t a concern. Walk or metro or uber to the things you want. And DC always has events going on to experience. And all the dining options. It really has become a foodie town compared to 20 years ago when we moved here.
For me it’s about 15-20 minutes to DCA (longer at rush hour of course) and 40 to Dulles parking with never having to get on the beltway(add 30 minutes to get from parking to ops). BWI takes 45 minutes but again depending on rush hour on I-95 could take much longer.

+1 for Navy Yard... lived there for almost 2 years. Sad when I left. Short walk to bars/restaurants/whole payche.... I mean foods. I went to Nats games on a whim in incredible seats for $30-100. My biggest problem in the area was the continuous construction but there are a couple apartment buildings where it’s not a big issue. Rent prices are insane. I probably would have stayed if it weren’t for the rent/parking costs.
Parking is so crazy that it was less expensive for me to Uber to and from Dulles and BWI than it was to own a car. So I sold my car.
