[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with the performance liberalism, but neighborhood friendliness depends on your neighborhood. I live in south Arlington and I love it, but I've heard horror stories about north Arlington. [/quote]

It depends on your street! I moved 2 blocks and found friends and a community after 5 years of polite smiles and waves, but no real conversations. We’re in “central” Arlington. [/quote]

What the heck is central Arlington??! [/quote]

Rt 50[/quote]

Nope, not a thing. [/quote]

Generally there is North Arlington and South Arlington, with Route 50 the dividing line, but some will use the term central Arlington to try and distance themselves from the perception of North Arlington.  Think Glebe ES or Lyon Park as opposed to Jamestown ES or Country Club Hills. [/quote]

Native here and that is not a common term at all.[/quote]

Agree its not a common term but I would say Ballston (Glebe ES, Ashlawn ES) are not south or north Arlington.[/quote]

Then you are wrong.  Anything north of Route 50 is North Arlington and everything south of Rt. 50 is South Arlington.  You may perceive yourself as too good for South Arlington and not good enough for North Arlington and try to develop a different identity. [/quote]

You are missing the point entirely.  It’s not about not being good enough for North Arlington but rather trying to put a bit of distance between oneself and the most obnoxious strivers in North Arlington, especially north of Langston. [/quote]

Way at the tippy top is the worst. North North Arlington. Huckabee territory.  :lol:

She’s long gone. [/quote]
