[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2021, Have a civilian job offer to work in Suitland, Maryland as GS-13 step 1...Is this a decent salary to live in the Washington DC area? And the second question is where to rent if working there? I need honest help since I am from northeast area.. Thx[/quote] If it's just you, yes it's definitely a fine salary to live in the DC area, especially as a renter. If you have a family and are the only income source, it starts getting tighter, though plenty of people do it. Re: Suitland, a lot of younger people just starting out rent in either the Navy Yard area and metro out, or in Alexandria if they would prefer to drive. This thread is correct that a lot of the older employees in Suitland live further out in Calvert County or in Eastern Prince George's. Many reasons for that, but one factor is that there was no metro to Suitland until 2001, so many older workers' housing decisions predate that as an option. The youngish people I know who have bought places recently tend to be in houses around the gentrifying parts of NE/SE DC, in NW DC condos on the Green Line, or in Alexandria.[/quote]
