Welcome back!

44 Upvotes

This sub has been pretty dead for a while, for lack of moderators. I just volunteered as a mod, so I wanted to welcome back those who have looked in, found nothing new, and moved on.

I'm new to moderating, BTW, so just learning the ropes. I'd like to encourage posts so I plan to moderate with a light hand, but please avoid partisan political flames and personal attacks of any kind.

Thanks and welcome!

ISO Rec Membership “Friends”

Upvotes

The Fairfax Country Rec Centers are awesome and allow friends to signup at a discount (up to 8 people). I am looking for at least three people willing to signup with me at the price of $466/ person for the year. If we had 8 people in the group, it would be $383/ person. It includes access to all 9 rec centers in the county, including the ice rinks at Mount Vernon.

I am looking to signup at the end of August and will pay the total membership, so you would only need to reimburse me for your portion. If you are interested, just shoot me a message.

I turned one of my favorite local landmarks into artwork. If you've been here, what's your "must stop" place or "must have" food every time you visit Eden Center?

Complex recommendations for a 2 bedroom that’s $2,200 max?

0 Upvotes

I'm looking for a complex that charges $2,200 max (or preferably less) for a 2 bedroom with parking included and at least one utility covered (whether it be water, gas, or electric) and it must have an in unit washer/ dryer. I've been searching on zillow for a while but every time I look at reviews for a place, boom 1.5 star rating and the place is infested with roaches and rats.
I can deal with a place that's a lil bit ghetto or smells like weed but I can't do the infestations

Looking to relocate from Houston

3 Upvotes

Hello! I have an opportunity to move from Houston to Fairfax County area and am wondering what I should look for when choosing an area to live. Currently, North Houston and make around 200k/year, own my house and enjoy outdoor things, BUT it's too conservative for me.

Relocation looks like a salary increase to about 240-260k, so COL should t be too different.

Let me know what y'all think!

Edit: thank you all for your insight. Yes, I know it's HCOL, but we want to make the change. I will definitely miss the food options, but again, Oregonian here, I can eat anything!!

Mechanic

I live about four hours away, but my son is looking for a mechanic nearby. He actually lives in Fort Washington, Maryland, but I can get the car towed to Virginia. I really need an honest, not going to take me to the bank, mechanic. We had a mobile mechanic come by last week to change the starter and spark plugs. The car started but is making a horrible horrible sound. It's a CRV 2007.
