The first one of my peers who became somewhat financially free (for at least a few years) bought an Alexandria home for a reasonably low price 5 years before the yellow/blue line expanded to King Street. his house was two blocks from the Braddock Road station- once it opened the house doubled in value. fighting subways near your house just confuses NY'ers, like T, or me, because "no subway anywhere near" means "much lower rent."
