[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's five million people in the suburbs. There's <700,000 in DC. Don't you think a whole lot of people in Virginia and Maryland would like a shorter commute? Any new housing built in DC is going to be absorbed by people in the 'burbs. I guess that will open up new places in Gaithersburg and Ashburn and places like that. Yay? [/quote] No, I would be surprised if anyone who made the choice to live in Ashburn moves to DC if new housing is built. The new housing will be bought by first time homeowners, probably young people currently renting in DC. It’s less common for people to move back to DC, especially a move to a small condo. [/quote]
