[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Very interesting replies. I am having a feeling that most posters consider DC area public transportation to be sort of work in progress and not there yet type of thing. To answer some questions. We were looking in North Arlington close to DC, the prices <1 mile away from metro were definitely 200K or even 300K more than equivalent homes further away and not walkable to metro. Our budget is 900K, definitely cannot go over a million. This opens up a few places further away from metro with good enough space and scenery and walkability to some amenities. I am working from home, that is not likely to change. DH can change his location, but he has flexibility of getting to the office a bit earlier or later, so to avoid the rush hour traffic. We would like to stay in the area central to the main employment points. We want to have reasonable drives to DC, Tysons, Reston, Bethesda. Arlington seems to be right in the middle. We are not set on Arlington, we are open to other places bordering the general area. [/quote]
