I don't really understand how anyone can live inside / directly outside the beltway.
hock:
Good starter houses w/ a 2 car garage in a decent neighborhood in Frederick run 140k to 200k, which is still expensive compared to backwoods VA but not 500k+ like it would cost closer to DC.
No way in hell I could afford to live anywhere in MoCo or Nova.
EDIT: I'm also w/ Apoc on this one - the DC metro area has not and most likely will never see the correction in prices Florida / LA / Vegas have seen. I really think this correction cycle already hit bottom about 3 months ago and is on the upward trend in this area. Too many government jobs. Anyone around here who complains how bad the recession has been needs a reality check.

Why do people just post what they are thinking? Without thinking.
