[quote=Anonymous]"Are there many AAs in S Arlington? I had always been under the impression that the diveristy there was mostly latino, but that's just based on my own anecdotal observations."

It is heavily Latino but there is a good mix of white, Asian, and AA, too. In my building of 11 condos (in Columbia Forest), we have 3 African American families, 3 Spanish and 4 white and 1 South Asian family. I think we're pretty indicative of the diversity of the area.

The closer you get to Bailey's Crossroads on Columbia Pike, the more African American residents you will see. They might not be in the same socioeconomic status as you, if you can afford to live in North Arlington, and a lot of them are African immigrants. I don't know if this is something that matters (I don't mean to be anti-immigrant at all, but thought you might be looking for people who share the traditional black experience in the US, if that is also your experience?)

Nearer the Pentagon, just south of Columbia Pike, is a more traditional black neighborhood (non immigrant, for the most part). I don't know what it's called--sorry!
