6 Things to Know When Moving to Washington, D.C. from NYC
Whether you’re a just a Wizards fan or want to work in the federal government, you will find a place here, with Roadway Moving by your side to peacefully relocate you from NYC. Let’s look at some essential facts we prepared for you to check if Washington exceeds the expectations before you hit the road.

Cost of living
A one-bedroom apartment costs around $1,800 per month, while a two-bedroom apartment goes up to $2,300. However, the good news is that the salaries offered in this city are much higher than in any other state or country. Compared with NYC, you can save some money with utilities, health care, transportation, and housing since the capital’s cost of living is around 35% less than in the city that never sleeps.
Housing
The average cost of housing in the home of the Washington Wizards is $550,000 compared to $700,000 in NYC. A two-bedroom apartment in NYC usually goes around $2,049 monthly, while in D.C., for sometimes even bigger apartments, you can pay about $1,665. Also, if you decide to buy a home in Washington, remember that D.C. has a 0.545% tax on assessed value.
Job opportunities
One of the most noticeable differences between these two cities is their job growth. D.C. offers a variety of federal government jobs, as well as education, technology, and health services. With the government hiring over 150,000 people. Being one of the biggest tech equipment consumers in the whole world, Washington’s family median income is around $96,000 higher than New York City’s $65,000.
Education
With Georgetown, Howard, and American University by its side, Washington’s percentage of graduate or professional degree holders is the highest in the country at 70%. Washington offers some of the best education programs in the country. It is ranked 3rd on the top 10 list that attracts students with many political and professional organizations to join.
Transportation
People in Washington usually use their cars, buses, or metro to get around. Uber and taxi services are well-systemized. Another perk of the availability of D.C. is that it can only take an hour to go on a road trip. On the other hand, if you want to take the bus, keep in mind that you pay based on entry and exit points. The only unfortunate thing about D.C. transportation is the metro that closes at night. No need to worry even if you’re a walker since they have a 98 walk score.
Fun times in Washington, D.C.
This is truly a place where you’ll understand what it means to be American. It’s hard not to while walking the same streets where all those historical moments and protests happened. Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech, the White House, National Mall, the Washington Monument, Tidal Basin, and the Lincoln Memorial are only a few sights that make this city a historical legacy.
