[quote=Anonymous]The main difference is that in Arlington, the metro stops are underground, so apartments & townhouses can be built right next to the entrances. In Fairfax County, the orange line metro stations are in the middle of Interstate 66. So you can't have apartment buildings as close to the orange line stations in Fairfax as in Arlington because you've first got to walk over 3 lanes of I-66 in either direction to merely exit the station. There are walkable apartments, but at a minimum it takes more time to get to the metro there. The silver line is a bit different and there are some options out there now very close to the metros, but for a long time Tysons was a place where no one lived. That's changing. [/quote]
