“Dear PoPville,
I was wondering if anyone has heard anything about DC tax refund statuses? The DC Office of Tax and Revenue has a dead link up on their website for checking the status of refunds – I haven’t been able to reach anyone to get any information! Wondering if any of your readers who have filed their tax returns have received their refunds yet.
This rental is located at Rhode Island Ave. NW near 5th. The Craigslist ad says:
“$1,300 / 1br – 500ft2 – One bedroom apartment for rent near Howard U. (Shaw/NW Washington) (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I live next to a construction site and the noise has become unbearable. The new building is at my units level now and I’m going crazy listening to hammering for 12 hours a day. It’s also weird that the construction workers can look in my one and only window all day unless I keep the curtains closed. Is there any way to get out of this lease early? I can’t live in this dark box anymore.”
