First off: I know now is a terrible time to house search with interest rates, home prices and rents through the roof. No arguments there.
My wife works remotely for a nonprofit out of DC. On a recent trip to work in office, she has expressed interest in moving closer to better support her team. We’ve just started exploring options within the Washington metropolitan area, that’d be a reasonable commute, preferable by public transit.
If you have knowledge of this area with suggestions for where we should consider, and/or any dos and dont’s please let me know.
Thanks very much!


If you don’t want to be in DC proper, Reston is close and not horribly priced. Decent restaurant, hiking, and other random lifestyle stuff nearby, but still reasonably close to DC.
