Let’s go over this. As a previous DC metro area resident, I agree and disagree with this statement.
1. Transportation: the vast majority of workers in NoVa drive to work, either to drive to Metro or drive to their workplace. Traffic is unacceptably bad now. Going from Bethesda to McLean, which is about a 15 mile drive, can take over an hour.
Solution: Amazon locates west of Manassas, in Front Royal or Leesburg.
This still puts them close to their us-east datacenters, but it’s still far from nightlife and city attractions for their workers. Maybe Richmond would be better, except there is a dearth of tech workers there.
