You live in a post office district, a judicial district, and a congressional district. A district is a word that can be used to describe many things not something inherently different from a country or a state.
Why is DC a district not a state? It has nothing to do with the founders caring if people lived there or voted. It was because of the possibility of a state-federal clash. I.e if Maryland passed a law would it technically be sovereign over the federal government since the federal government presided in that state? Now if you know anything about DC you will know that there is a federal district called the national mall, that is run by the federal government and includes all the federal office buildings. There rest of DC is a largely residential and commercial city like any other that is run by the DC city council and mayor. Hardly anyone lives in the federal district which is the actual administrative area and most live in the city. furthermore three of the neighborhoods in DC predate the city, so people have lived in the DC area prior to there ever being a DC.
Yes. If people want to build condos on top of a factory and that doesn't interfere with the factory why the hell not. Very little of DC is actually federal office space its more like should people be able to live in the neighborhood right next to the industrial park? Yes ofc.
People should not live in districts.

Do you think people should live in industrial parks?
Just have an apartment above the IRS.
