Also, I understand there is broad familial support at Randolph. That isn’t the source of my frustration. There is a history of strong immigrant communities in 22204, but the majority of the families moving into AH are not long time Arlington residents. Most of the studies done by the county have said that.[/quote]

I'm assuming by AH you mean the committed affordable units, vs. the market rate affordable units.  If we are talking committed affordable units, this statement is false.
The people moving into AH are indeed Arlington residents.  
The most recent study showed that 66% were already in Arlington.
75% were either living or working in Arlington at move in.

I'm not aware of any studies on market rate affordable units.[/quote]

I think when CAFs are created through preservation/renovation they house primarily current Arlington residents (previous or current renters are given priority I believe). However, when a brand new CAF is built from the ground-up, there's no such priority given as other factors are weighted more heavily.[/quote]
