[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember when Alexandria & Arlington were so bad that you could get shot or mugged [/quote] +1 Definitely. Arlington was always very dumpy, and Old Town had a small nice spot, but mostly subsidized housing. Manassas was about as hick as you could get. [/quote] I am still sort of surprised that Arlington is now considered desirable, when most of it was historically pretty dumpy.[/quote] Proximity to the physical center of one of the world’s super powers? The fact that it was “dumpy” was an aberration of history. [/quote] You don’t think PG County in MD is dumpy? Argue by closer to DC than arlington, and I know many families who would never move there.[/quote] It depends on one's point of reference, I suppose. [/quote]
