I can't speak for "most Americans", my income is pretty median but I highly value travel and tourism so I make it happen from time to time. If you like parks and museums there is a shit-ton to do in and around DC, and it doesn't have to be any more expensive nor unsafe than visiting any other urban cultural center like NYC or Miami.

I had time to visit two museums while i was there: the Air and Space Museum (which was surprisingly dissappointing. OMSI up in Portland, Oregon had had most of the same exhibits and presented them in a more dynamic manner, but the Smithsonian was definitely still worth the time) and the National Art Gallery (I liked the sculpture garden and the impressionist exhibit they had the most. If you don't know what to do in an art museum, pick your favorite piece of art in every room. then figure out why it's your favorite. it's a really fun game). I would love two weeks of free time to explore DC but like, life.
