[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is divorced PP. I don’t know what you are talking about with an hour long commute. I live near route 50 near ffx line and it takes me 20 min to get to metro center in the morning. 30 minutes to get home. I have also commented from fairlington recently and I don”t know what you were doing, but it doesn’t take an hour. Yes commutes can be really long, even if you have money. Sorry, no sympathy here. I chose a short commute and small townhome. I would love a bigger place, but isn’t happening. Part of what makes arlington expensive is the proximity to DC. I will also second what some have said-you chose the easy route by staying in govt. the only govies I know in Arlington have a spouse making at least as much income. Working outside govt can be a trade off, but perhaps you should consider in house or something that has less of a salary cap. [/quote] I call “rounding down commute.” Your commute does not take 20 minutes door to door from the Fairfax line to Metro Center. [/quote] In the morning, yes it does. I leave about 7:15 in the morning. Sitting at my desk, after parking and elevator and walking, at 7:45. I take route 50. That was all precocidad. Don’t know now. Been doing this commute fir several years. Granted, if there is an accident or bad weather it takes longer. [/quote]
