Neighborhood

Van Ness is located next door to Forest Hills, with Connecticut Avenue between the two neighborhoods. Van Ness is home to the University of the District of Columbia, DC's only public university and a rare urban land-grant university. Like most of DC's downtown neighborhoods, residents enjoy a walkable community with easy access to mass transit. The Van Ness-UDC Metro station offers service on the red line.

Connecticut Avenue is lined with shops and restaurants, providing a commercial district within the neighborhood. While you'll find many students living in the area -- especially around UDC -- Van Ness is considered a family-friendly, safe neighborhood with shady, tree-lined streets and gorgeous historic architecture.

great value

I love the Clarence House! Been here just over 5 years.

9/3/15
JUST AWESOME (Great location for everyday life)

Where do I start?? Maybe the part where I talk about the building's beautiful rooftop views, ample living space, and great proximity to the grocery store and Red Line Metro, everything you could ever need is with a 10 mile radius if not walking distance. We are also less than a mile from Tenleytown and National Zoo which offers even more stores and restaurants. landrypimba2000@yahoo.fr

Love it.

I love living at the Clarence House. The main things for me are price, safety and cleanliness, all of which you get here. My rent goes up a little every year, but only about $20 or so. I've never lived anywhere else where increases were so affordable. The building is rent controlled.Management keeps the building clean and anytime I have an issue (ants once, a small leak another time), they are friendly and respond quickly. The neighborhood is safe and convenient and the neighbors I've talked to are interesting and nice. Seems like there are a lot of French people here, which I'll like because i get to pracice speaking French!
