$1000 is I think kinda low . Probably $1200-1400 more realistic .

$120 is what you pay for a much nicer gym than YMCA I think.

Rent is unrealistic for Dupont and Logan Circle.

Transit might be able to get money from employer. Especially if you’re government

Also, if you're living in DC and your destination is in DC, metro fares are usually only about $2-3 even during rush hour. Even a monthly pass will cost less than $100 for that price range.

Yes. If you are going max distance like DC to Shady Grove or Ashburn, you'll pay $6 during rush hour, $3.85 outside rush hour, and $2 after 9:30 or on weekends. Traveling within DC a couple stops, it's basically $2.25 during rush and $2 outside of it, which isn't as noticeable.
