Seeing as you are in the area, I wonder what you think or have heard of North Arlington past Lee highway or Shirlington? Historically and in the current day that is where the black neighborhoods are. However, living in the area for over 20 years people have always spoken better of Shirlington. PG always had an interesting problem: middle-class professional parents, but teenagers who bought into urban gang culture for no apparent reason. This lead to a higher crime and harassment rate there, leading people to feel like it was a ghetto even if income stats wouldn't reflect. Annandale had a similar problem, but with the Hispanic crowd.
