Capitol Hill to Tysons???? You’d recommend that commmute? The train ride alone has got to be 45 minutes, never mind the rest of the commute to/from Metro stations.

Most streets also have an annual block party and stagger dates so you can attend the ones surrounding your house. You just missed the season, but usually runs through September and october

Tons of young families.
Ashton Heights/Lyon Park could work too, sits between Clarendon and Ballston. Very family friendly.
