Best way to make friends as a young adult in DC: live in a group house

If you’re ok with the idea of living with others, I’d highly recommend a stint in a group house. That’s how I’ve made all my friends and got acquainted to the community. If you pick the right group, you can make friends through your roommates, have a group or person to try new things and activities with, and it helps to come home to a house with activity.

The downside is if you pick the wrong group, you may live with slobs that bring over boyfriends to have loud sex and brown stains on the toilets. But that’s character development.
