Renters across the District continue to feel the squeeze, but residents in three particular neighborhoods have to dig a little deeper in their pocketbooks than most at the end of the month.

Curbed passes along the latest findings from Zumper, which recently released its median one-bedroom rent report for the District. Checking in as the most expensive is the neighborhood of Penn Quarter-Chinatown, where the median monthly rent for a one-bedroom comes in at $2,750.
