[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s bizarre that well paid people in here are sad that they can’t live in Arlington. Arlington is not even that nice. It’s like a lower middle class person whining about not being able to live in Woodbridge or Manassas. [b]A bunch of crappy places full of uninteresting architecture and no character. [/b]Be glad you aren’t tied to them via a mortgage.[/quote]

And you just described 99% of the DC area.  :lol:

Take your pick of sh1tty suburb options. I'll take the one that is close to everything.

Yeah agree. And it's not like DC itself is all that attractive. Once you get outside Georgetown, parts of Cap Hill and some of those sprawling colonials in upper NW - the rest of the city is butt ugly. A lot of so-called "hot areas" are basically Starbucks, CVS and a bar or two. And please don't try to sell me on the beauty of a renovated rowhouse. It's still a rowhouse: none of the space of a SFH, none of the charm of a Brooklyn brownstone. But it clearly has world class cultural venues, and it's the place to be for any number of careers. I don't know why the poster thinks it's "bizarre" to want to buy a house in Arlington. There's always going to be a pull to live nearby. [/quote]
