Walkability is nice, but many people trade that for a (perceived) better school district and different housing options (some people want a larger house/lot.) What is so hard to understand? It's all still in Arlington, we're not comparing the lifestyle of Clarendon vs Loudon.

Also, many wealthier folks aren't using Metro.

You just cannot compare the lifestyle of the homes that lie right next to Clarendon Metro, the Metro, the gyms, all the stores, groceries, festivals where people walk to school (both ASF/Key and W-L) and the homes that are in the suburbs of Arlington.

Yes the outer areas of 22207 are much closer than Loudon--it is still a suburb where all daily activities need a car---the exact opposite of the urban areas of 22201.

People buying over here are looking at more than schools. Several of the newest families moved from McLean with HS-age kids..and-yes- they are now attending W-L.[/quote]

Lots of people outside of Clarendon lead walkable/bikable lifestyles in Arlington. I see kids walking to coffeeshops, to and from school, etc in my 22207 neighborhood. I also see lots of people taking the ART bus to the Metro.[/quote]
Why are your kids so tired they have to walk to coffee shop?[/quote]
