Obamas pick DC neighbourhood

daughter, Sasha, can finish high school in the area.
The White House has not said which house the president and his family
plan to move to, but their new home will be in walking distance of the
ambassadorial residences of Britain, the European Union, France, Iceland
and Portugal.

presidential term since Woodrow Wilson in 1921, according to DCist.
