It is popular on acount of its looks.  Have you been to Country Club Hills, Chain Bridge Forest, Lyon Village or Cherrydale, just to pick a few places?   They are full of beautiful homes.  Pimmit Hills, on the other hand, is only "popular" because housing is in short supply right now, and the only transition there has been from a run-down dump to a run-down dump mixed with some of the region's tackiest McMansions.  There are virtually no distinctive or eye-pleasing houses there.  So calling it the next North Arlington is a very big stretch. [/quote]
Nope, it isn't.  If North Arlington was in PG County (horrid schools), no one would pay these prices. If North Arlington was in Ashburn (far away), no one would pay these prices.  Yes, North Arlington has many, many beautiful properties but people don't pay the Arlington premium for the beauty. They pay it for the location, location, location, then school and services.  Otherwise, any beautiful house in North Arlington can be found elsewhere at less.

Next, comparing PH to North Arlington is just silly (and it wasn't me who did it), for a host of reasons, including the most obvious one: North Arlington is about a thousand times larger.  A proper comparison would be Cherrydale to PH (quality-wise, it's still ridiculous), but at least you are comparing neighborhood vs. neighborhood.[/quote]
