Live in MD or VA
Gf and I will be moving in together....She works in Silver Spring (Loiederman Middle School), but I will be working in Reston on Wiehl Ave.....My hours will be longer than hers.....Should we live (renting) in Bethesda or Mclean (or another location for that matter)? I like Bethesda because its like clarendon in Arlington.....however it is prob not worth it to have a commute from hell based on my desire to live in a more urban area...Thoughts and/or suggestions

The cost of apartment housing in McLean and Bethesda can rival that of Clarendon.

Why not Silver Spring itself? It has a decent urbanized downtown and the cost of housing will be less. It will mean a longer commute for you but ideally your girlfriend would acknowledge your sacrifice. Plus, the arrival of the the Silver Line to Wiehle Avenue is imminent, so at least you'll have another commuting option.
