Mclean, VA is a pretty pricey area. Expensive houses and condos. Very nice area. Your best bet for living, if you want to pay less is to look in Alexandria, VA, Dale City, VA and Woodbridge, VA. Then just have a short commute to Mclean, VA

I'm in area and if you want a little space to drive your car and less congestion you'd be happier west of McLean (Reston, Sterling, etc.) rather than going south. Houses are expensive here. Plan on $400K+ for just a normal house. Just for reference, a 4 BR 2500 sq ft house in McLean is probably around $800K.

Your kind of in a tough spot for a couple reasons:

1. Everywhere around your job is very pricey, even Reston, Ashburn, etc you can expect to pay $400K + for a townhouse.

2. If you move to somewhere like Woodbridge which is 45 mins from Mclean, your daily commute will drive you insane in a week.

For a one bedroom condo in centreville, i paid 185,000. F*ckin assraping. I have a job that pays well, but the cost of living is so insane that my good paying job doesnt really get me very far. If you need a job I can hook you up, thats if you know anything about fixing computers.
