[quote=Anonymous]I have a friend - SAHM - her husband commutes from Lansdowne in Leesburg to Arlington/DC - depending which office.  He doesn't get home until after 7 generally.

Depending where you are, there are VRE stations.  I know there is one in Burke but I think Manassas is the end of the line.  At least that would give you time to yourself if you did park & ride vs sitting in gridlock and getting pissed off at traffic thus arriving home pissed off.  Even with park & ride to the Vienna metro, you would have a lengthy commute.  Keep in mind that the DullesMetrorail project that is currently underway so in a couple years, you can pick up metro in Loudoun county just west of the airport. A benefit if you settle in Purcellville or that area.

There's also the MARC but I hear it frequently runs late and to pick it up at Point of Rocks or farther west then to go through Gaithersburg/down the 270 corridor, seems like an awful long ride to me.

I have also known people to live as far away as CharlesTown WV and commute to Tysons - they didn't have kids though. [/quote]
