[quote=Anonymous]I live almost exactly 2000 ft from the GW Parkway in Mclean, and about 4000 ft from the beltway. You can definitely hear road noise especially in the winter and especially when roads are wet. I definitely thought about it before buying, but if you look at a map and want to stay 1 mile from a highway you pretty much have to rule out much of Arlington and Mclean inside and just outside the beltway. These are some of the most expensive areas around, so roads aren't discouraging enough people to push prices down. So yes, definitely a consideration and all else equal i would live further from noise, but it's a trade-off. [/quote]
