"Close to DC"

Ballston, Clarendon, Courthouse, area is great for young single professionals and newly married couples. Spent a few years living in this area and loved it! Lots of things to do. Great night life, bars & restaurants. Also enjoyed the proximity to the metro and short ride into DC. The orange line is the best. Tends to have the least delays and construction.

Review

Super convenient commute to the Pentagon/Ft Myer/Henderson Hall. The schools are excellent in North Arlington. Lots of mom & pop restaurants as well as 5-star dining options. Clarendon offers great shopping. More info about living in Arlington, VA.
