The small county bordering DC to the east and Fairfax to the west. Commonly referred to as part of NOVA but really it's 400x more urban and developed then all the other SUBURBS that say they're a part of NOVA. The county has good public transport (but only in the relevant parts). Tourists flock to the small county to gawk at the Iwo Jima memorial, Arlington National Cemetary, the Pentagon and then stand in the middle of the metro platforms wearing neon shirts and looking at their phones because they can't figure out how to use a very simple system. In the north, white ass families live with kids who fuck around all the time because they have no access to transportation so they're stuck in their really confusing suburban neighborhoods. Also all the northern children think Clarendon is the shit because they're too scared to venture outside of Georgetown's borders and Nats stadium. The only kids who know where it's at live in walking distance of a metro stop (not including East Falls Church because that shit is nowhere near anything). The south of Arlington is disconnected but it has the mall, the Pentagon, the Pike and shit so respect to the people who live there. Every kids parents work in something fancy and there are a ton of military kids bc of Fort Myer. Even though it's better then the rest of NOVA (AND FAIRFAX where they claim is a good place to live but it's actually depressing and everyone is brainwashed into thinking they live near dc) it's still a suburb and sucks.
Me: Oh ya I live really close to DC
Person: Fr! Me too, holy shit let's meet up!
Me: YES I live in Arlington, Virginia want to metro to get lunch or something?
Person: Oh...yikes. I live an hour away from the closest metro stop, maybe we should just pretend to keep in touch
Me: Ok bye loser who lives in NOVA and claims to live near DC

Living in the Washington, DC Suburb of Arlington, Arlington Girl is a young woman in her mid to late twenties waiting to get married.
She is a native of Pennsylvania, Ohio or Southern California, but attended university on the east coast - typically a larger school with a Division I sports program and rigorous, but not too tough academic standards - Examples would be James Madison University, Penn State, College of Charleston, or University of Rhode Island. During college Arlington girl was a sister of Delta Gamma or Kappa Alpha Theta sororities.
When she didn't find a husband during college, she moved to Washington, DC because Daddy couldn't afford to buy her a condo in NYC or because the college boyfriend (an engineering or accounting major) has a job in DC.
Arlington girl works exactly 40 hours a week, spending much of that time at anntaylorloft.com or bananarepublic.com. After work she goes to many happy hours in downtown washington, drinking several $15 martinis while trying to meet Mr. Right. Sometimes, when her "allowance" from daddy is running low, she goes to dollar draft night at Rock Bottom Brewery in Ballston.
She lives in a 1 bedroom apartment or has recently secured a condo or townhouse with Daddy's generous help on the down payment. The apartment is filled, painstakingly, with Pottery Barn furniture, but the refrigerator is empty - except for leftovers from dinner out 3 nights ago.
Arlington girl will live in Arlington until she: a) gets married and moves to a McMansion in Fairfax county or b) turns 30 and is still single - then she'll get her MBA from George Mason or George Washington and move to New York.
Arlington girl may also make appearances in gentrified and gentrifying sections of Washington DC - like Eastern Market and other areas of Capitol Hill. The distinguishing factor between Arlington girl and Capitol Hill girl is that Arlington Girl makes 2-3 times as much Capitol Hill girl and therefore is not prostituting her self like Jessica Cutler.

Like all Arlington Girls, Jessica was excited to be attending her best girl friend from her sorority's bachelorette party in Las Vegas.

A slang term for the northwest suburb of Chicago, Arlington Heights. It is called this due to the fact that virtually everyone that lives their is white.
" This place smells and their are minorities everywhere. When are we going to get back to clean, productive, crime free Arlington Whites?"

Suburb of northwest Columbus, Ohio. Originally founded as a commercial real estate enterprise. The city of Upper Arlington has distinguished itself with it's ability to house conservative, successful, and wealthy families in the face of overwhelming foreign immigration to the region. Boasting effective leadership, the city has maintained a barrier between successful and non-successful people since 1918.
I want to live in Upper Arlington.

A little town an hour north of Seattle. 100 year old houses and businesses. Cows. 10 hair salons in a 1 radius. All the cool kids either hang out at the river, Mcdonalds, or the parking lot of Safeway. Lots of plaid, Romeo's and TOMS Shoes dwell here.
