It also looks at cost.
Another one for the annals of reporting on how damn expensive this city has become.
District, Measured takes a look.
Without immigrants, most of the city’s restaurant industry would collapse, and there would be few carpenters or housekeepers.
The city has seen a shift in the past few years, as low-wage workers move out and high-wage workers make up a higher share of the population.
A startup employee, on average, makes 61.2 percent of what an average D.C. worker does.
Not all D.C. neighborhoods have fared as well post-housing crisis, though.
And city residents hold a higher share of lower-paying jobs.
Employees at D.C. law firms make about $166,000 a year.
Neighborhoods like Petworth, Brightwood, NoMa, H Street, Congress Heights, and more had the biggest increases.
