Anyone here lives in (or ever has lived recently in) Clarendon, VA?

I'm thinking hard about moving there next year. The rents are expensive, but they're cheap compared to NYC. Was just there for a couple of days. Seems like a real nice area. Good access to the subway. Nice places to eat.

1. Clarendon is one of the hippest areas in DC Metro

Your age will probably determine how much you would like it. The younger you are the more you would like. Very walkable. No car necessary. If you are older, it might be too busy and noisy for you.

3. I live in NYC.

So, I like activity around me.

2. Clarendon that is part of Arlington?

It’s a very good place to live if it’s in your budget.

4. Kinda is.

If I can survive in NYC, I can handle Arlington at least for a little while.

5. There are less expensive places if you're willing to go further out. Nt

6. My son lives there until last year. It is a great place to live

Easy to get to DC via metro or walk across the Key Bridge to Georgetown. Restaurants, pubs, bars easy to get to the kennedy center. All in all a pretty good spot in the DC area.
