Just across the Potomac from DC, Clarendon is an area that has grown tremendously in popularity for those who prefer a locale that straddles the line between city and suburb. Clarendon is especially known for lively nightlife, a perfect location for a great date night at any age, and a center of activity for the younger crowd. If you're looking for fun in the evenings, you'll always find it in Clarendon. Visit a craft brewery, dine at one of many only-in-Arlington eateries, kick back in a pub or hear live bands. Clarendon is one of two Arlington courses for the annual Armed Forces Cycling Classic each summer, and Clarendon Day is one of Arlington's favorite fall festivals, featuring multiple music stages, kids' activities, arts and crafts vendors, and more. The prevalence of suburban amenities like Whole Foods and Starbucks are as much a draw for the neighborhood as the small music venues and quality restaurants that line Wilson Boulevard.
