What is the ratio of working people to welfare cases in that growth figure?

Well, if you consider government employment "work", they're all working people, and almost all white.

The white population of DC is growing rapidly, in fact, Washington may be a white-majority city by the next census.

The current majority population of DC is being pushed out, mostly into Prince Georges County, which is becoming much more vibrant as a result.

The thousand people a month are mostly coming in for jobs and internships, and the city is almost 50% white now. A few decades ago it was 70% black. Now there is also a significant Hispanic population.
