[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, it’s super popular, even with young grads.[/quote]

You mean young grads moving back home to mom and dad’s huge house? (which I don’t blame them for, that would be great for a year or two post graduation)

Because hardly any 21 year old grads are moving to McLean to live on their own.[/quote]

yes, parents have a nice house $2.5M+. But that kid is hardworking and makes over $200k+ himself. He just likes what McLean can offer, close to culture center, shopping center plus a nice house[/quote]

Sigh… 21 years old, please go live in the city somewhere and be around people your age, many of whom might look different from you and come from a different background. For a 21 year old, there is little “culture” in McLean unless they consider the hot bar at Balducci’s and a class at orange theory exciting.

For families, McLean offers the nicest housing stock in nova, greenery and nature in most neighborhoods, access to some of the best schools, and proximity to DC and Tysons and even Maryland for commuting. Downtown McLean and all the businesses are those that serve a very affluent suburb, but do not comprise a city or even a walking neighborhood of any sort. 99% of people are driving to these businesses.

I do remember one awesome business in downtown McLean from growing up. Near the intersection of chain bridge rd and 123, there was a used CD store in the 90s. I remember once picking up badmotorfinger on a whim, going home and listening and being blown away!
