No. It is not in a state nor is it its own state. It's in a specially set aside federal district known as the "District of Columbia", which is between Virginia and Maryland. That is what the letters DC stand for. The city itself is known as Washington. The residents have some voting power, but not as much as people in the states.They are taxed more heavily because most of the buildings in the city are owned by the government, and cannot be taxed, so the burden falls on the 500,000 or so residents.
