[quote=Anonymous]A lot of the neighborhoods closer to metro are in W-L's boundary and not Yorktown's. So while some might think Yorktown is a better school that should command higher housing prices, a lot of folks value Metro access and walkability and happily pay for it in W-L's area. When looking for a house, I actually would have preferred W-L (and walkability to Metro) but bought in Yorktown because the closer-to-metro houses were more expensive than parts of Yorktown's boundary that are 2 miles from Metro. I moved in from Fairfax because I wanted a shorter commute to/from DC. 22207 is a lot more than CC Hills - there are a bunch of lower-priced (but not low-priced) neighborhoods with nice houses and great schools. Just like there's more to 22201 than Lyon Village. What 22207 doesn't have much of is townhouses and condos, though, so average or median prices reflect that. The townhouses we do have tend to be pretty high-end.[/quote]
