Anyone live or have lived there (surrounding areas)? I may be moving there in 8 or 9 months. I began looking at apartment prices ... they suck. So if anyone has any pointers, that would be awesome. Arlington, VA seems to be cheaper.
This would be for a job that I will most likely get. I just passed the initial interview.

I might not have to sell them.
It looks like I'd be spending around $1k a month on an apartment.

We visit there every couple of months for church stuff but i wouldnt want to live there.The traffic is insane. The best thing you can do is make sure you have a gps because you will need it.There are alot of one way streets and roundabouts. I have used a gps down there for about the last year and i dont know how i was able to get anywhere before.(alot less stressful now)

Yea, I would probably be taking the metro or something. I don't have much of a choice but to live in that area if I take the job.

If you can get into Arlington or on the edge of Maryland its not as bad but its still pretty crazy

I grew up there, in Fairfax and West Springfield. Everything is expanding outward now.. I used to work in NW DC, but now the suburbs of Nova and DC stretch all the way out to West Va.
I do still have friends in the erea I could probably hook you up with though.
I'll be moving to SC this year, so you'll be within driving distance of me.

Cool. I'll let you know if I wind up moving out there, which won't be till later this year until I find out.
