With the cost of gas rising (it seems like every day!), living within a reasonable commute to work makes more and more sense. For those that work in downtown D.C., living within the Capital Beltway may be optimal. 
On the Virginia side, the Capital Beltway encompasses all of Arlington County, Alexandria City, Falls Church City, and parts of Fairfax County including Annandale, Fairfax, Springfield, Tysons Corner and McLean. As of this afternoon, there are a whopping Three Thousand Three Hundred and Twenty Two (3,322) homes on the market for sale within the Capital Beltway in Virginia! This includes 1,351 condos and 1,360 single family homes. The rest of the inventory includes townhouses, duplexes and other miscellaneous housing options. This presents plentiful options for homebuyers searching for a close-in home in the Virginia suburbs. 930 homes are available in Alexandria City and 902 homes in Arlington County. Falls Church City adds another 60 homes to the mix. Historically, purchasing a home within the Beltway has turned out to be a good investment, since proximity to D.C. is always at a premium. |
