[quote=Anonymous]DC Metro area population has doubled since 1980. It is no surprise that certain neighborhoods around NW DC have gotten more wealthy as the number of wealthy has expanded greatly with the growth in the area. Also, Arlington was not a 'hood 25 years ago. It's no surprise we may see a little more shift in neighborhoods around here. Compare our growth to the NY metro, where the population has only gone up about 25% over the same time, Boston metro about 30%, Philadelphia 25%. I go back to the town I grew up in in NJ and houses are selling for only 20% more than they did in the late 1980s, and population is lower than it was 20 years ago. There is plenty of opportunity to trade up. You just might have to move over a few towns to get it done.[/quote]
