The Neighborhood

Growing families and young professionals are drawn to Arlington County real estate for its urban atmosphere and easy access to the Metro, which takes them straight to DC. It’s the best of both worlds when it comes to a less urban setting than Washington, DC, but it’s more suburban than some of the other nearby communities. There’s a strong community spirit in the area thanks to the many family friendly events such as the summer camp programs, festivals, and fundraisers that are held all year round.

Arlington County has two interstate highways, Interstate 66 in the northern part of the county and Interstate 395 in the eastern part.The George Washington Memorial Parkway also runs through Arlington easily taking you to Alexandria, DC, McLean and Maryland. The metro runs through North and South Arlington. The Orange and Silver lines service North Arlington while the Blue and Yellow lines service South Arlington. For those who may be further than walking distance to the metro, the metro bus has stops throughout the county.
