[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In NoVa, if you look at areas that spiraled over a 10-20 year period, it's been areas like Herndon with housing that wasn't great to begin with. So I'd say the areas at most risk would be areas with a lot of multi-family housing like Centreville that could decline if the Asian population moved further west or an area like West Springfield that already has less expensive single-family homes. Or maybe the cheapest parts of Ashburn that are starting to show their age. [/quote] A bad commute is the biggest red flag. That's what killed Woodbridge. If the commute is reasonable, old housing stock is torn down[/quote] Good point. I avoid driving on I-95 south of DC at all costs. Which is why I think the inner suburbs of MoCo (SS, Takoma Park, Bethesda) will do just fine. Kensington has it's own MARC Line. The commute from eastern/southern MoCo to DC is very reasonable. Also, I don't see Arlington declining.[/quote]
