Depends on your definition of "nice".

I'm perfectly OK with the fact that when I look out the window here in my
office, the skyline is mostly National Forest.  Not many places in DC
have that going for them....

Just for fun...  Nice is indeed subjective.  We have crap 
for restaurants for the most part, the only "mall" here is 
tiny, traffic is terrible and everything is expensive, so 
we go do free stuff like:

hiking

One day, hopefully, telecommuting really takes off, I can 
actually sound intelligent in an interview (I do worse than 
geek-attempting-to-ask-a-girl-out-for-a-date) and I get to do 
the job I want from here instead of struggling through what 
I do for work.  You gain some; you lose some.
