Review of Arlington, Virginia


Great City for the "City Mouse!"
Star Rating - 8/22/2007
There is so much to do in Arlington, and it is all in walking distance or Metro (subway) walking distance. The culture is very diverse, very educated. Cost of living is extremely high, but what you get in return is worth it. The climate is mild, with a few unberable days in August and January; outdoor exercise is in abundance, as are parks. We are also near the Chesapeake Bay for all of the water lovers. When you tire of city life, the beaches are less than two hours drive. Right across the Patomic (a five minute walk) is Washington DC. You become enveloped in a sense of pride to be an American (or live in America)!
