Thanks. Yeah, I'd be fine living in a group house if I had decent access to a Metro.. not sure if those two go hand-in-hand, but still. I'm unable to drive, is the kicker.

Group houses are everywhere and, if anything, tend to be closer to Metro stations (or popular bus lines) than not because they tend to be occupied by people who can't necessarily own a car.

Check out Clarendon and balston! There are Facebook groups of people looking for roommates. Sone of my friends lived there with roommates. Also get money from work for your metro commute. Good luck!
