    "It’s awesome! Arlington has friendly residents, parks, walkable amenities (such as restaurants, grocery stores, and gyms), and great access to public transportation. Shopping is great too, with Pentagon City mall and Potomac Yard very easily accessible by car, bus, and metro rail."

    "Not a lot of kids around the building I live but there are a few parks close by. The neighborhood is safe to walk around by yourself late afternoons or evenings. It has also shopping areas and emergency care services in the area. It is a nice location however the rent is quite expensive."

    "We love this area. The neighbors are friendly and there are many options to dine and shop nearby. The neighborhood is established yet many homes have been remodeled to bring them into the modern era. Community events at Crystal City are great options as well as a quick hop on the metro to Washington DC proper. "
