Pros and Cons of Hackathon Spaces in Washington DC

Every location has advantages and disadvantages, and no city is perfect. Before you decide to host a hackathon space in Washington DC, make sure that the pros outweigh the cons.

Advantages

  • Public transit
    With so many people living here and lots of yearly tourists as well, it is impressive that Washington DC is said to have one of the best public transit services in the nation. Of course it will be busy, but this town has the title for second fastest commute in the country and it will get you where you need to go.

  • Great place for career growth

With so many options you will have no trouble finding something to do on your day off.

Disadvantages

  • Not a foodie city
    You are less likely to find an out-of-this-world meal in Washington DC as you might in some other places. Although there is nothing wrong with the food here, the selection is said to be a bit sparse and there is a reason it does not appear at the top of any foodie lists.

  • High cost of living
    One thing you will notice about Washington DC is that it can be expensive to shop here and you can expect to spend more on most things in this city. Unless you are coming from another big city and are used to the elevated prices, you may need to adjust your budget.

  • Mosquitoes and ticks
    When you visit this city you will be welcomed not only by the residents but by the bugs too. Not only mosquitoes like to live here but ticks, fleas and other pests as well. They can make it unpleasant to spend time outdoors, so be aware of this if you are planning to be outside a lot.

  • National Air and Space Museum
    As one of the most popular museums in the world, Washington DC’s National Air and Space Museum is home to a collection of famed air and spacecraft that have made history.

The museum has an abundance of interactive exhibits to enjoy, some of which are permanent and others that change from time to time.

  • John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts
