[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The family and I are relocating to (near) DC. We need to be as close as possible to the Supreme Court building. Our budget is $1500 for at least a 2bed 1.5bath (preferably 2) and we have a fairly long list of must haves. Good school (currently in elementary), SAFE area (you would let your children play outside), side walks, family/kid friendly area, decent commute to the orange or blue metro lines (ideally within 8 miles), grocery store, big box stores, rec center, & indoor pool all within 10-12 minutes. The wish list-We'd love to have a back yard. We'd LOVE a 3rd bedroom. Day to day traffic that wont have us feeling suicidal.  We'd prefer to stay out of Maryland because of the horrible schools. :lol:

What do you think? Impossible?  [/quote]

Look at apartments and townhomes in the Pentagon City and Ballston areas --those give you Metro access, good schools, kid-friendly neighborhoods, access to shopping, rec facilities reasonably close. Of course, it's a 30-min commute to the Hill. Also, will need to increase your budget to $2,000 or so.

I live between Crystal City and Braddock metros (1.5 mi to each) and we pay $2200 for a two BR, two BA.

OP, I do think that is impossible. You could barely afford to live in Richmond, 100 mi away, for that. [/quote]
