Working in DC-where should girls live?

There should be a lot of options near the Red Line in Montgomery County Maryland. Have the friend who now is in Virginia pick up a copy of one of the free apartment guides the next time she’s at the Metro station, and compare prices. Two bedroom apartments in my complex start around $1500/month. We are three blocks from the Twinbrook station, and have all kinds of shopping in walking distance.

Many young people in DC live in “group home” rentals. That might be something else your daughter and her friend could consider. Often they are in older (but safe) neighborhoods that are accessible to bus lines if not the metro.

Good luck!
