    "Stadium is the last Metro stop before orange blue silver lines split apart and go in different directions. This means if you are commuting from Downtown DC is easy, you can jump on any Blue/Orange/Silver train headed East. If you live further out then you need to wait to get on the right blue, silver or orange train and getting home could possibly take much, much longer."

    "It feels historical, quiet, and residential and has great parks- but it’s still w/in walking distance to shops, restaurants, bike trails (river), freeway entrances, and mass transit. The best place all around that I’ve lived in this city. "
