As foreign, I love living in DC. Many people from Md and Va try to get their kids at DC schools, public transportation is efficient, clean. Recreation is great from free to all the budgets. You must hate this city

Do not come, do not come.

Wyngate has become a “McMansion” village. Nearby Parkwood in Kensington is another neighborhood with many tear downs.

wow only 1.8 million. what a steal.

Great video!

Raised my kids in Loudoun, moved back to Tidewater 4 yrs ago where grew up. I concur with the $$$ sentiment. Bought my house in Leesburg in ‘86 for 100k. Same house costs 400k when i left. My second house went from 600 to 1.2m in 10 yrs. It’s super expensive.

Shocked you didn't mention anything about the Metro or public transit.. Even during the traffic segments

#1 not to is traffic 295 TERRIBLE...#2 speed cameras on EVERY POLE , EVERY HALF BLOCK!!! #3 expensive, rent / mortgage. #4 over development, condo and luxury apartment going up EVERYWHERE!!!!

The DMV is extremely expensive. Don’t come here. Commutes are 45-90 minutes per day. ❤

Great City. But the people suck

Greetings from SW DC!

Plus, Alexandria, VA is only 8 miles away, and like San Diego, is one of America's finest cities! Check out the Little Theatre of Alexandria while here. ❤️

I'm moving to DC this year

How is the brookland area in DC??

The one area of this video that I will address as a federal contractor since 2007 is that snow is real in this area. I’m from The Bronx, NYC and I used to clown the DMV for shutting things down. However, the roads in many places are bad but drivers are horrid! I remember in 2008 or 9 and watching traffic stuck on the mixing bowl from 395S to 495N from about 4 pm til the following morning. People ran out of gas, stuck on a highway with nowhere to go. I applaud the govt for shutting things down. Many of us have children. When schools close, everything needs to close. Emergency childcare is scarce.

As a DC resident he sure didn’t lie about those photo traffic tickets.

Thanks for video! Good stuff. Gotta do a video on Alexandria alone. Specify City of Alexandria vs Fairfax Cty side of Alexandria. I love both. Lived 1st 10 years in the city but bought home right off Telegraph Rd in Fairfax Cty. Best of both worlds! 10 mins away from National Harbor. Minutes from the city of Alexandria. Less than 30 mins from DC. Both have perks. Arlington is whack.

TLDR absolutely do not ever ever ever drive. It’s not as bad as this guy claims but public transportation is so good I’d willingly use it if it made my journey twice the length.

You left out the hideous summer humidity

Don’t move to Maryland

Remove Nova and their nonsense ideals, and VA is unbeatable.

Hi sir please reply

If you're moving to dc you dont need a car. The metro and bus service is pretty extensive.

Traffic? If you live in the city, you don’t need a car. Use public transportation. Subway system is awesome.

As for higher education, UVA is ranked higher than any other college in Maryland, DC, and Virginia. Virginia also has more in the way of beaches, considering the size of Virginia Beach. There are pockets of liberalism, outside of NoVa, like Charlottesville.

E bikes

Great information! Thank you. I am wondering about suburbs south of Alexandria proper, such as Huntington, Rose Hill, Bell View, Hollindale, Fort Hunt and the Mt Vernon areas. I hope you will do a video of these areas, if they are part of your territory. Thanks!!

Probably only about 5% of all Americans can afford to buy in these areas. I grew up in MD and currently live in NOVA. It is outrageously expensive.

🥲

Thanks for the tour James!

I can't wait to move out of this hellhole

I received an offer to work at the Albi restaurant, which is located in Navy.(I saw some comments saying to be careful around the region) Which nearby region would you recommend? (remembering that I'm leaving work very late) I go alone, so any little room alone is fine for me. It doesn't have to be a region with lots of things to do. I won't even have time to enjoy the city. Free time, I'll probably need to rest hahaha With a bike, it takes 26 minutes to Dupont Circle, 30 minutes to Brookland (is it easy/safe to bike around town?) THANK YOU!

what about zip code 22311?

I LIVE IN BETWEEN CLARENDON AND LYON VILLAGE

I lived in DC for ten years. The best years of my life and loved everything about it. I would move back in a heartbeat.

Does Arlington and Alexandria have lower income and property tax than Bethesda, Silver Spring, or Rockville? I currently live in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, but would like to be closer to DC for work.

Very thorough, one of the better videos for Arlington for sure. I really appreciate the graphic with the metro stops.

Back in the late sixties and early seventies I lived off Hillwood Avenue in Falls Church. Me and my high school friends would often walk to 7 Corners Shopping Center which was 10 minutes away. Was very close to everything. Excellent neighborhood.

Slow down and annunciate. Your content is excellent, but your speech is somewhat difficult to understand.

I have been living in Philadelphia and hate it I was accepted into temple George mason and American ultimately chose temple in Philly but there is to much crime I was told that I can still transfer to one of the 2 schools in the DMV area I am going to go with George mason everyone was amazing friendly and my dad is getting a really nice job with the cable company RCN I am going to need to find a good place to live in a decent neighborhood with good public transit and a safe community I’m a huge hockey fan and I have invested into caps season tickets

Will you do one on dc and surrounding vs richmond?

Can you do a video on Wesley Heights?

One hidden gem of Arlington as far as commuting is it does have a good bus system that can take you into Rosslyn or the Pentagon so you can live off the metro and still have quick commuting times. Columbia Pike has super quick bus routes. Busses also technically don't cost you anything if you are transferring to metro.

Is it worst than Atlanta traffic?

Stafford and Marshall should boom because of highway proximity. Partly telework folks who only go in a couple times a week or a few times a month. Also vdot likely to expand tolls further along 66 and 95.

Excellent overview of the dc suburbs.

Outstanding work, every video! 👍
