Washington, D.C.’s unique strength is in its unparalleled educational attainment, ethnic diversity and policy-savvy population. The region is the most highly educated in the country with more than 70 percent of residents in neighboring Arlington County holding at least a bachelor’s degree and more than a third with a graduate or professional degree, and other nearby counties with similar educational attainment. This high concentration of educated professionals includes lawyers, policy experts and public-sector professionals who live in the National Capital Region. The area’s growing immigrant communities from El Salvador, Ethiopia, China, Jamaica, India and the Philippines makes the D.C. area useful for companies looking to hear from politically aware, globally oriented audiences or companies researching products including fintech, sports marketing and public health messaging.
The region is one of the most socially progressive and demographically varied in the country. EmCee Research’s D.C. facilities cater to this population, and communities across the mid-Atlantic, with quiet, professional spaces suited for deep research.
