Columbia Heights and NoMa are comparable to Barcelona’s Cuitat Vella neighborhood.

A two-bedroom in Columbia Heights is comparable in price to Barcelona’s Cuitat Vella neighborhood, according to NeighborhoodX.

With the bar for a luxury home in D.C. now crossing $2 million and the teeniest of homes renting for $1,400 a month, it might be time to get out of dodge. Sure, that’s not even remotely realistic for most of us. But we can still have dreams. Realistic ones that take into account how much we’re spending for housing now and the glamorous locales that we could reasonably afford. Like I said: dreams.

Enter this map from NeighborhoodX, a forthcoming start-up focused on neighborhood-level data. They broke out the average purchase price per square foot across the District for a two-bedroom and compared it to cities around the world (they’ve also done it in New York City)

“D.C. is one of the most expensive real estate markets in the world, and it skews residents’ idea of what ‘normal’ prices look like,” says NeighborhoodX founder Constantine Valhouli. “Even under-the-radar neighborhoods are the equivalent price per square foot of some of the best neighborhoods of leading worldwide cities.”

For the $803-per-square-foot average price of a two-bedroom in Georgetown, you could hang your hat in Rome’s famed Centro Storico neighborhood. Or for the $280 per-square-foot average prices of a Barry Farm abode, one could move to the ritzy Piantini neighborhood of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. At $369 per square foot, Trinidad compares to the historic Mitte neighborhood of Berlin, and Fort Dupont’s $233 per square foot average compares in price to Athens’ Kolonaki neighborhood. Shaw’s soaring prices—now at $640 per-square-foot for a two bedroom—are roughly equivalent to Cannes’ Le Suquet neighborhood.
