[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find McLean more attractive.  Arlington seems to be a mix of old houses built for WWII-era government workers and new McMansions that are way too big for their postage-size lots. You see some of that in McLean as well, but at least the lots are generally big enough to leave some room for a yard.  [/quote]

The nicer neighborhoods of McLean are way nicer looking than Arlington. The N Arlington and McLean neighborhoods that border Arlington and falls church look very similar. Then parts of south Arlington are more urban and walkable. I would not say N Arlington is a walkable area either.[/quote]

You obviously have never even been to Arlington. Why are you commenting?  :lol:

Hint: look at a map and see where the Metro stations are.

I’m also from NYC. Your definition and my definition of walkable may be different.[/quote]

OK - let's call it "Arlington walkable".

If you want less arbitrary terms, how about this for my N Arlington neighborhood: 
Walk score: 85 / 100
Transit score: 72 / 100
Bike score: 83 / 100

Regardless, many of the "walkable" areas ARE in North Arlington.

Or maybe you don't understand N v. S Arlington? Rt 50 is the dividing line. Everything N of Rt 50 (incl. 7 of 9 metro stops) is considered "North Arlington".
