WHO ARE WE?

OUR MISSION

We started Capital Roost because—if we’re being honest—most of us are just winging it.

Families make huge life decisions—where to live, what school to choose, how long a commute is too long—based on random Facebook threads, outdated forums, or one friend’s super-specific experience.
But neighborhoods are nuanced. Schools are personal. And what works for one family might completely unravel another.

Capital Roost exists to help families navigate the real decision-making process behind where and how to live in the Washington, D.C. area.

We’re not a relocation service. We’re not real estate agents.

We’re local parents, planners, researchers, and observers—here to decode the chaos.

Whether you’re new to DC or just feeling the itch to rethink your zip code, Capital Roost is your companion for making confident, informed, family-first decisions about where to land.
