[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everything about Arlington has always seemed completely mediocre to me, and I lived there before moving to DC.  At least McLean has nice houses and good schools.  Arlington seems like the worst of both worlds:  it's not a real city, and it has absolutely no edge or urban energy, yet it's not an attractive suburb, either.  It's just purgatory for people who want to have it both ways and end up with a pale imitation (no pun intended) that lacks character or prestige.  Sorry if that seems harsh, but some people in Arlington have no clue how people who've actually lived in real cities or more upscale suburbs perceive Arlington and its oddly boastful (and clueless) residents.[/quote]

Not harsh, misinformed. Your post presupposes anyone who lives in Arlington has never lived anywhere else, which is far more likely anywhere BUT Arlington.

As for McLean having nice houses--pockets do. But most are boring split levels that are seriously ugly. Trust me; I grew up there...
