[quote=Anonymous]There are differences between primary (Glebe, Washington, Wilson) and secondary roads (Patrick Henry, Harrison, etc.) in Arlington. I wouldn't buy on a primary road but we got a good deal on a house on a secondary road and it hasn't been bad. Traffic is worse than in the neighborhood streets for sure, but the county does make an effort to control speeding on secondary neighborhood roads with medians, speed traps, etc. We mostly get cut-through traffic, but it isn't a "main" route. I've never had any issue backing out of the driveway. If we had the money I would have held out for something more in a neighborhood, but we paid a full $100K less than what houses a block up and similarly sized are selling for- and we got a move-in ready place that needed no repairs in a great school district. Plus we have a nice big backyard, which made the sell for us. [/quote]
