Date: July 10th, 2012 7:56 AM Author: Razzmatazz crawly center Is there any actual advantage to living in dc rather than near the metro in Arlington? Arlington seems cheaper, safer, still fun, and just as close to everything by metro. Why live in dat district? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1990397&forum_id=2#21053175) |

Date: July 10th, 2012 8:15 AM Author: Cyan Laughsome Kitty some ppl prefer to be right near the areas in DC they like to go out.
others believe it is better, cooler, more "real" to live in actual DC.
It's not like living in jersey in NYC. The people who give a fuck are generally losers who arrived in DC <2yrs ago, just moved to columbia heights and need to justify the significant extra expense. |

Date: July 10th, 2012 8:29 AM Author: Beta fragrant field masturbator the places you'd want to live in arlington aren't really any cheaper than a lot of good areas in DC. You basically pay the same for a slightly nicer place and better access to parking. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1990397&forum_id=2#21053195) |

Date: July 10th, 2012 8:52 AM Author: Razzle-dazzle Ruby Garrison Alpha Main advantages are that you can generally walk to work if you want to do that, and it won't take you a lot of time and/or cost a bunch of money to get back to your place after you go out.

Date: July 10th, 2012 6:14 PM Author: Cracking Associate 1. Cheaper -- barely 2. Safer -- no, this is a myth. The places you'll live in DC (if you live in a nice area like Georgetown, Dupont or West End) are just as safe 3. Still fun -- debatable 4. Just as close -- no |

It depends what you value. Personally, I like to use my car frequently. Not necessarily to drive to work, but I like to go places. Living in DC makes that expensive and a huge pain in the ass.
Also, even if you live in the "nice areas" there are still poor blacks you have to walk around to get inside your apartment. Fuck that. Really the only tolerable place in DC is Georgetown. |

in the city you can easily walk to get everything. not so much in the burbs - especially the maryland red line burbs. |
