Hi! We've lived in DC for several years but now want to move to NoVA because my husband's commute to Fairfax is just too far from DC. Looking for a townhouse or condo community to rent in for 6 months (ideally) or a year (more likely) while we look for a place to buy. We'd like to be able to walk to a downtown, have a nice pool and some open space in the community, have it be fairly close to the metro or VRE, and have a unit with hardwood floors. We thought Vienna might work, or Fairfax or Burke, though we don't want to be too far out since I commute to Crystal City for work. Any suggestions of townhouse or condo communities that would fit this description? Thanks!

What's your rental budget, and what are you looking for at that price? (2br? more?)

I think I would look at condos in Crystal City. Then one of you would have zero commute, and the other would be a straight reverse commute out 50 or 66. There are plenty of townhouses in Annandale as well that would give you both decent commutes and open space, but walking to a "downtown" is unlikely (although there are lots of restaurants and some retail), and there's no metro access.
