[quote=Anonymous]Spend two or three years saving up than buy a single family home in the Palisades area of DC. Commute across Chain Bridge or Key Bridge to Arlington. Or… For Arlington maybe look at some of the neighborhoods with early 20th century suburban charm like Maywood, Cherrydale, Lyon Park, Westover Village. A plus for families is that most all schools are very walkable, and depending on the location ES, MS and HS could all be walkable. Arlington is older denser than the suburbs further out which is why stores, cafes, and schools are often a short walk away. Metro rail access is another benefit. If you’re okay with the public schools in Alexandria then move there. Plenty of charm in Del Ray and Rosemont. The commute might not be all that great, depending on where in Arlington you work.
