Considerations when choosing an Arlington moving company

Moving to Arlington doesn't have to be a stressful experience. Before starting your search, make sure you've gone through the following:

  1. Must-haves, and what you'll be willing to compromise on. You may need to give up certain amenities to live in your favorite neighborhood, or otherwise look for a smaller layout or a different apartment type.

  2. Your search horizon. The ideal time to start searching is between 1-2 months before your planned move-in date. However, don't be stressed if you only have a couple weeks to go; a surpising amount of rental inventory is usually available for immediate move-in.

  3. Your favorite neighborhoods. We've put together a curated list below of some of the more popular areas to get you started on where to live - whether you're moving by yourself or with a family, looking for a residential area or one in the middle of the action.

  4. Documents you'll need when applying for an apartment. These will vary depending on the landlord, but most require verification of employment and income, your credit report, and references from previous landlords.

  5. Whether you'd like to live alone or with roommates. Roommates can mean considerable cost savings upwards of 50%-60% depending on the amount of people

Facts about Arlington

Located just 5 miles from the nation's capital, Arlington is deemed to be a tourist destination because it is home to the Pentagon and Arlington National Cemetery. In 1922, Arlington was reported by the Virginia Supreme Court to be a “continuous, contiguous, and homogeneous community”. For this reason, there are no towns or cities within Arlington. In 1932, Arlington became geographically the smallest self-governed county in the U.S., with an estimated population of 220.400 people. It only covers approximately 25.8 miles of the state of Virginia. Approximately 15 percent of the population of Arlington are Latinos, making Arlington extremely diverse. Arlington holds the third highest percentage of Latinos in the Washington Metropolitan Area. Arlington holds the highest percentage of residents holding bachelor degrees or higher in the Washington D.C. area. Arlington remains one of America's most prominent places to live, visit, and do business in. It is thought to be one of the best places to retire in as well.
