Big Town is a ramshackle little settlement made up of outcasts from the nearby Little Lamplight (which will have its own slide soon). Despite its small population, its unemployment rate is relatively high, and the dangers of mutant raids don't make this town an attractive option. (4/12) - ThreadSky

Technically, Canterbury Commons is a trade center for the Capital Wasteland, but you wouldn't know it by looking at it. The residents haven't fully taken advantage of its trade position, even before the superheroes started fighting in the streets. There's potential, but it's largely wasted.

Little Lamplight is a *unique* settlement in that it's entirely populated by children. The economy is surprisingly diverse, though its isolationist nature and aggressive stance towards adults means there's little opportunity to be had for the average person.

Megaton, one of the core settlements of the Capital Wasteland. Despite its ramshackle appearance, it's grown significantly and has become a main stop for caravans. There's a lot of room to expand, though newcomers may find it difficult to find a foothold.

The Republic of Dave is a (nominally) democratic settlement run by President Dave. Though it's opened up to trade caravans recently, the settlement remains mostly isolated, with its residents being fed propaganda. Concerningly, more than half of the population are Dave's children.

(Fun fact, the bit about how the Republic of Dave originated as a separatist faction from the pre-war US comes from the Fallout 3 Game Guide. It's never mentioned anywhere else, similar to the bit of info in NV about Goodsprings being settled by an NCR grant.)

Rivet City is the largest city in the Capital Wasteland, and it's easy to see why. It's well defended with a large police force and has a steady supply of fresh food and water thanks to the science lab. This is certainly the best place to work, if you can get there safely, that is.

And last but not least, Underworld, the ghoul town. Despite being in the middle of DC and all its residents being ghouls, Underworld is actually the third most populated town in the Capital Wasteland. Unfortunately, most of the population lives in relative squalor.
