[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]22201, if you can afford it. There are some huge townhouses in that zip code. 3500-4000 sq feet. So-so pyramid. Orange line metro Courthouse, Clarendon etc. 22209 also has some large townhouses, too. Roslyn Metro. It really doesn't get closer to the city than these zip codes. [b]You might save 10-15 minutes/day in commuting time compared to living out in Fairfax or beyond. [/b]Not really worth the trade off in price per square foot, IMHO. [/quote] Fixed that for you. [/quote] This is "fixed" in the sense that you took an accurate statement and turned it into a lie. One that is easily disproved by, oh, say, doing the drive from "Fairfax or beyond" downtown on a regular weekday. You go do that drive and then come back to us. Here's a hint: the reason suburbs closer to DC are more expensive is because every.single.mile. here makes a huge difference in commuting time. If you don't care whether you're in the car 30 minutes or 1 hour and 30 minutes every morning, then, by all means, there are plenty of beautiful and inexpensive homes to be had outside the Beltway, not just in Fairfax, but in many other areas as well. If you can afford to live close-in, work downtown, and CARE about your commute, you'd be an utter fool to rely on totally inaccurate drivel like this poster's comments.[/quote]
