[quote=Anonymous]If you'll be working near Union Station in DC, you could consider Burke and take the train in.  There are townhouses (and probably some single family homes) in your price range, there's a nice lake (with swimming) nearby and the schools are pretty good.  It's a nice family neighborhood.  That said, if you have a driving commute, it's a hike.

If you end up in Fairfax, try to find something very close to the orange line metro.  it's nice to be able to hop a train and read the paper till you're in the city, and there are probably properties to rent near the Vienna and Dunn Loring metro stations.  Falls Church is another good option; it has two metro stations, good schools (mostly) and is a bit closer in.

Maybe consider parts of South Arlington?  The commute to DC would be great, and the schools are decent at the elementary level, depending on the area.  (Fairlington is a very family-friendly community, though the townhouses aren't all very big.)  Some sections of South Arlington feed into decent middle schools - i've heard Kenmore is ok.  And if you could find a townhouse in North Arlington, even better, and the commute would be great.

(I can't speak to Maryland - I didn't live there very long.)[/quote]
