Bethesda, it has more to offer. I live in / like Reston - but extremely suburban, all families. All we have is the town center which is great but it’s far from a destination

Reston, especially the town center, is the same price as Arlington and parts of DC. If you want to actually be in the town center there’s only a few apartment complexes there - plenty around the town center but would require long walk/bike

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

I think you’d probably enjoy Alexandria more than Reston, tbh.

Is there any way to change this perception or does it just come over time?

Homeowners- how did you decide what neighborhood to buy in? I love the Arlington area (rosslyn thru ballston), but my husband would rather have more of the city experience. I’m open to seeing other neighbors but this is my wishlist:
- 1. clean, safe neighborhood - 2. Neighborhood with trees and decent shot at parking (and cheaper than Georgetown $14 parking). - 3. Cute & more upscale shops and restaurants. Do any DC neighborhoods fit this?
