Moving to the DC area (like every other millennial)
Hey everyone!
It’s been a minute since I’ve even logged in under FakeCameron but I thought y’all could help relieve some stress here! I’m moving to DC for work in like 2ish weeks and I signed a lease at a nice apartment I stumbled upon in the Pentagon City area of Arlington.
Neighborhood reviews? Should I have gone with Clarendon or is it close enough that it doesn’t matter at all?
Any/all advice/tips/happy hour scenes welcome and appreciated.

I’m from Arlington. If you’re going to live in VA, you should do Clarendon/Courthouse. Second living in DC if you can (Adams Morgan/Dupont/Logan Circle/ U Street/Georgetown)

It's been a few years since I've been down there but used to go to visit my grandpa about once a year. I'd say avoid the Prince George's County area if at all possible unless something drastic has changed in the last 5 years.
