You don't know anything so why even comment?


I do know what I'm talking about. The "Gold Coast" is an expensive part of McLean. See e.g., http://www.wfp.com/listing-showcase/sold-property-details.asp?mlsID=FX8738061


Quit while you're behind.

Thank you. I will search for listings in these neighborhoods. Are there particular zip codes I should search for along with neighborhoods?


It includes parts of 20011 and 20012. Aim closer to the park for nicer houses/ bigger lots and a better commute; stay west of Georgia.


The zip code for Shepherd Park and Colonial Village is 20012. However, there are almost no rentals here. I remember preparing to moving to the DC area a few years ago and being curious about this area on the map, as there were rentals listed in surrounding areas, but none here. We ended up renting elsewhere for a year, but then bought in SP/CV. Love the neighborhood.


OP can find rentals in nearby Brightwood (also 20012; the northern edge abuts Shepherd Park) and further down in 16th St Heights, if they're trying to get a feel for the area.

I thought the same thing. Huh?


The comment really annoyed me. Idk why ppl feel like they MUST comment and be snide about things they do not know about. Must have some superiority defect that someone mentioned 'gold' and VA what they consider the land of milk and honey, was not included. Freaking loser.

This poster is correct. The person talking about Arlington is either a troll or pretty embarrassed right now.

My wife and so are moving to DC and an acquaintance suggested we look to rent in the "Gold Coast" area for at least a year before purchasing a home. Which neighborhoods and zip codes comprise the Gold Coast. Any information you can offer to help narrow our search would be great our budget is $2800/month, we have a 4-year-old son.
