    Rick, this is great info. As someone moving to the Greater DC area in a few months, I've been actively trying to figure out exactly which area to live in and Arlington is at the top of the list.

      Awesome, glad it helped! Many of the people I work with that are interested in moving to Arlington enjoy Alexandria as well. I'll have that video out in the next day or two. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thanks for watching!

    I grew up in N. Arl., VA from 1950-1976 on Patrick Henry Dr, at the Rte.66 overpass. House was taken when freeway built. Went to McKinley Elem., Swanson Jr. High and Washington-Lee High School. Fsther was WWII Veteran and worked at the State Dept. We walked to school every day, played till dark ALL over the place and Never heard of any dangerous threats to us. Far Cry from today!😢 BTW, W-L was the #2 rated H.S. nationwide in 1966-1968.

    Kennedy Center is not in Arlington, but in DC (pretty close though). Lol, Arlington is not crowded ( I love it here, moved from NYC)

    Hello! Firstly, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed the video and have already subscribed :D
    Just for some context, I'm a single 20 year-old guy in Charlotte NC, and am a cybersecurity consultant earning $96k/year. I'm considering to move to the Arlington area this summer and am looking for a more exciting place to live. Given my salary, do you think living in Arlington is feasible, particularly with or without owning a car with a one-bedroom/studio? I remember you mentioned the cost of living is very high and am curious to know your thoughts :D
    Also, are there any neighborhoods you might recommend given my circumstances from a social and financial perspective? Thanks!

    Is Falls Church considered in Arlington, or is that a totally separate city? Is that a good secondary option for families?

    • @RickHartunian
      @RickHartunian  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey! Falls Church is its own independent city within Virginia. Fantastic area. I'll have a video on Falls Church coming out soon but if you have any further questions about it feel free to reach out

      Absolutely. It’s all relative and dependent on where you’re moving from! 👍

    VA is not low tax, but anywhere would probably look good after CA taxation. VA has plenty of crime and illegal immigration, but then so does CA.
