Finding a Home in DC
Great things are happening in Washington DC, and it’s not just a new neighbor at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, either. Congress is finally considering our representation, and just maybe we are moving toward being self governing, with more of a local say in our community.
Housing and congestion are two huge concerns for DC residents – finding affordable housing near public transportation and a place to park your car is a major undertaking for most people. You might want to read what David Alpert, author of the blog “Greater Greater Washington“ has to say on the subject of making DC better with transportation and local planning.
It is true that for many of us with families, “affordable housing” means communities like Reston, Gaithersburg, Bethesda. If you are going to pay $250K and up for a place to live, you are more likely to get something larger than a one bedroom in those areas. But, you’ll commute. Fortunately, DC and the surrounding communities have a great asset in the Metro. But the reality that many of us know is if we live far enough from the beltway, we have some kind of combination of driving and mass transit to get us to work and home every day.
