Quality of Life in Arlington VA

3/29/2009
For a region where life is very fast-paced and work-focused, Arlington is a good choice for a more balanced place to live. You can easily get into DC on the metro lines and go to the Kennedy center, the Smithsonian museums, or take part of the nightlife/ live music at the 9:30 club. Depending on where you work and where your clients/customers are, the commute is probably better than other areas in the DC metro region.
Yes, it is more expensive to live in Arlington than other cities in Northern Virginia, but for us the higher costs are worth it because we get to fully participate in the cultural and urban attractions in DC.
