Answer 1 :
Arlington's a big town, so it really depends on where you live in there, but here are some times starting from places in Alexandria: Alexandria (King Street Metro), on the Blue Line from Rosslyn Metro: 23 minutes McLean, on the 23A Bus from Ballston Metro: 18 minutes Falls Church (East Falls Church Metro) on the Orange Line from Rosslyn Metro: 11 Minutes The Metro really is a nice, quick, and efficient way to get around. Most places in DC itself can easily be reached in under 30 minutes from Rosslyn.
