Yeti, I'd look at the type of work you'll be doing in either of them.
I prefer Chicago, although parts of DC are beautiful, like Arlington. Chicago has the culture though. For the type of work I've seen on your site I think you'd do better there. DC has work too but it's very business-political oriented in my experience.
I would also look at which city is harder to assimilate and find your tribe, so to speak. Chicago has more of a town-ey vibe to it if that's your thing.
People bitch and moan about the cold, but everyone deals with it, and it's a widely known faux-pas if you shovel your car out and then someone else steals your spot.
