Mt Vernon checks both boxes and is right off the light rail and near Penn Station.

Was just going to say this. I live here (ok, straight woman) and it's super LGBTQ friendly, great shops and restaurants, beautiful architecture, great location. Welcome!

How's parking in the area? Similar boat, looking to move there

Ehh. It’s a fantastic public transit, bikeable and walkable area. If you can ditch your car to move there do it. Most resources you’ll need are within walking distance and the light rail is usually within a few blocks. Amtrak and Acela at Penn station, Maryland Ave bike lane. Even the subway is reachable via the light rail. That area is really just rich with alternate transit means. Probably the best in the city frankly. Not necessarily somewhere I’d live if you have to drive to get to work out in the county somewhere or drive around for work. It’s a densely populated urban core with parking restrictions on some streets and meters on some others and not anywhere near enough parking for all of the residents (if they all owned cars.)
