The 23rd installment of The Real World has descended on DC — and Washingtonians are having a cow.

The cast of eight strangers moved into the semi-mansion at 20th & S Streets, NW — valued at $5.69 million –just last Thursday. It will be their home for the next five months, nonetheless hundreds of residents in the posh Dupont Circle nabe have already logged complaints about being harassed by cameramen and security guards, bright lights blaring at all hours of the night, and the appearance of chartered buses on nearby residential streets.

An entire blog, The Anti-Real World DC, was set up earlier this year to chronicle just how displeased the city is with MTV’s pioneering reality series hitting the Nation’s Capitol.

“People post where they are, people following them around it’s just going to bring a bunch of teenagers into the neighborhood and we really don’t want that,” Dupont Circle resident Bryann Baker told News Channel 8 on Monday.

Local reporter Lindsey Mastis of WUSA-TV 9 was interrupted by an cameraman who shoved his camera into her face as she interviewd people on the street on the day that castmembers moved in. (Check Out That Video Above.)

Local hangout spots, including The Black Cat near the city’s lively U Street Corridor, have made it clear that The Real World cameras aren’t welcome at their establishments.

“We’re not really an MTV-style club . . . People come here to hang out and have a drink or see a concert, not be bothered by film crews,” Black Cat owner Dante Ferrando told The Washington Post Monday.

The Real World DC wraps shooting in November and is scheduled to premiere next year.
