Ok “builder”. McLean has always been more expensive, not just right now.
Not only McLean. Arlington and the good parts of falls church are more expensive per sq foot than Vienna.
Haha agreed, the "builder" angle is hilarious since this data is public.
Per sq ft N.Arl>FCC>Mclean>Vienna
Overall price Mclean>N.Arl and FCC>Vienna
Great Falls is a trip back to the 90s.
Not sure what point you’re making because in terms of overall price Great Falls is more expensive than FCC and Vienna. It’s also more expensive than North Arlington as a whole and comparable to the more expensive parts of North Arlington (22207 as opposed to 22205).
Vienna is only “high-end” if you define that term expansively, but why bother since everything is relative.
Let me simplify this for you. Gaudy house on 100 acre land is more expensive than 2 bedroom condo on the Upper West Side. But Upper West side is more expensive than middle-of-nowhere gaudy house.
In other words, you're some North Arlington dweeb who thinks the higher price per square foot there compensates for the fact that the houses are often small and almost always on small lots. Great Falls is still (1) part of the discussion and (2) more expensive overall than North Arlington.
[When people leave the Upper West Side, as they often do, they often head to places in Westchester, New Jersey, and Long Island where the average home price costs more than the 2-BR condo they're leaving behind. And they still know they're moving up.]
You are right, at the end of the day price per sq ft dictates whether an area is considered expensive. The rest of the post is basically just rambling.

If you are not in dc them the most expensive area to live per square foot is actually Arlington, va.
So Arlington wins on “high end” as being the most expensive place to live. But then you get all the arguments of Potomac or McLean with 15000 sq ft homes and acres of land that are the “high end”.
Vienna is not in the conversation for really any debate.

upper middle class area but not rich. I live in TOV but Mclean is definitely more high end. The most expensive new built in Vienna is 2.5m-3m but in Mclean 2.5m is the starter price for a new built.

Prefer close in Oakton locations over Vienna (and more particularly town of Vienna) as it is less dense with larger lots, no TOV rip off tax, same Vienna schools (Madison/Oakton HS) and close to amenities.

All of those areas are considered high-end for the DC area. The DC area is far more than just areas inside and immediately outside of the beltway. A middle-class person relative to the income of the DC metro area could not comfortably afford a house in Ashburn, North Bethesda, Rockville, or Vienna.

Oakton is more like Great Falls and a step up from Vienna, so no.
Trying to make Vienna look better by trashing Oakton is sad.

Depends what you mean by "high-end." If you mean affording Lululemon and a Model Y, then certainly you'll find that is common in Vienna. If you mean generational wealth, set-for-life high-end, then no. We're all still W-2 slaves here trying to keep up.
