I will be working in Dunn Loring on Gallows Rd., and will have the option of receiving metro benefits from my employer. I'm in my mid 20s and will potentially have a car. I'm looking for a studio apartment either near a metro or bus line. With that said, where would be some good places for me to live?

Price range is especially relevant for real estate questions.

OP,

I know that Circle Towers in Fairfax have really been trying to rent out their apartments. They're right near Fairfax City so it may be a long bus ride but may be cheaper than trying to live across from the Dunn Loring metro or on Gallows Road itself.

Another suggestion might be the Falls Church area down 50E. I know the metro buses will take you all the way from 7 Corners to Gallows Road. (I had to ride the bus once while my car was in the shop longer than expected.)

In any case, I don't think there's much of a market for studio apartments in that area. You may have to settle for a 1B. Btw, I made suggestions based upon what an average studio may go for in Fairfax County. If you can afford around $1,400 /month or more then you can probably live pretty close to the metro.

I have seen Halstead at the Metro studios listed for about $1250 / month this summer.

Right across from the Dunn Loring Metro.

Has parking garage, but I don't know if studio would have dedicated parking spot with rent.

Wilton right next to Dunn Loring has studio at $1225 and 1 bedroom around $1400:
