Hate to say it but Million dollar home sales in McLean, N Arl, Bethesda, whatever is pretty meaningless as that is pretty much the average home price. And the average home is SMALL.

I'm rich, and the last people I want to associate with are other rich people.

Douchiest of all is the guy in "not quite there" Arlington who starts all these threads. And you.

Wouldn't it make more sense to compare Arlington 22207 to McLean 22101 since they both have the same typical household income and demographic?

Or Fairfax County vs Arlington County.

Or Arlington 22205 to McLean 22102 (although I think that part of Arlington is more affluent than McLean 22102)

Or South Arlington 22204 to Pimmit Hills 22043/22102?

22102 contains areas that are far wealthier than any part of 22207 or 22101.

Been to Metro 29 recently? Seems like they have had a change of ownership. Extraordinary price hike, including an upcharge for lettuce and tomato on your burger.
