    Locate Your SMD and ANC

    Metadata Updated: July 16, 2025

    Washington DC is divided into districts called Advisory Neighborhood Commissions, or ANCs. These are made up of 2 to 12 commissioners who make decisions about a broad range of issues in your community. They advise the DC government about issues that affect their community - including parking, recreation, street improvements, liquor licenses, zoning, restaurants, the police, sanitation, and the District's annual budget. This is a resident's most local form of government.

    Single Member District commissioners on an ANC represents a division of Washington DC called a Single Member Districts, or SMD. Commissioners each represent about 2,000 DC residents who live in the SMD.

    DC residents elect their ANC & SMD commissioner every two years in non-partisan elections. Learn more at https://anc.dc.gov.
