Where to Live?

Location!! Location!! Location!!

When determining where you want to live, you should consider:

  • Distance from school, work, and other activities
  • Is it convenient for Metrorail, buses, or parking
  • What is the neighborhood like: during the day/at night/on weekends? Take a visit to the neighborhood at different times to see what kinds of things you observe about the area.
  • Where is the nearest: grocery store? police station? post office? pharmacy? bank? resturants? How far would you have to travel for goods or services that are not located in the immediate area?
