Living in Arlington
Arlington has something for everyone: its close proximity to Washington, DC, is a draw for commuters, its high-ranking public schools are a plus for families, and its mix of housing options, commercial developments, and leisure activities make Arlington a great place to live at any stage of life. Arlington simultaneously has the highest concentration of singles in the DC metropolitan area, and has been ranked as one of the top places in the country to retire! However, on the flip side, the cost of living in Arlington is among the highest in the nation, and soaring property rates can pose a real challenge for potential residents.
Things to do in Arlington
Arlington residents have all of the cultural attractions and points of interest of the Washington, DC, metro area at their fingertips, but there is plenty to do in Arlington, too! Arlington is home to a handful of national monuments, including the Marine Corps War Memorial, the United States Air Force Memorial, and the Arlington National Cemetery, in which are housed the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Women in Military Service for America Memorial, the gravesite of President John F. Kennedy, and the Robert E. Lee Memorial.

If you’re looking for a nice place to eat after work, Kabob Palace serves some delicious Middle Eastern fare like chicken and lamb curries, kabobs, and veggie specials. Another local favorite, Carlyle is the perfect spot for brunch in Arlington, and Pupatella spoils Italian-cuisine lovers with some amazing Neapolitan-style pizza.

Gravelly Point Park at the very edge of the county limits offers a wide grassy area for residents and visitors to watch the planes take off and land at the airport.
Though many of the area’s prominent cultural venues, including the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, are located just across the Potomac River in Washington, DC, Arlington does have a few of its own cultural hotspots.

Tips for Renting in Arlington
Arlington County’s Tenant-Landlord Commission and Citizens Advisory Commission on Housing are great resources for prospective and current renters in Arlington, VA. The Virginia Landlord-Tenant Act details the rights and responsibilities of Arlington tenants and landlords, and Arlington renters should be vigilant about the terms of their lease and their legal rights. Under the Landlord-Tenant Act, no lease should include clauses that require tenants to waive their rights under the Act or waive the right to make claims for damage to person or property that are caused by the landlord. Tenants cannot legally use their security deposit for their final month’s rent, and security deposits cannot exceed two months’ rent. If the landlord plans to withhold the security deposit at the conclusion of a lease, the renter must be notified within 30 days; otherwise, the security deposit should be returned to the tenant within 45 days with an itemized list of any deductions or charges.
