Arlington’s housing sector is growing, and the city has been praised for implementing smart growth development strategies, such as concentrating most of its new development near transit facilities and encouraging mixed-use and pedestrian development.  Arlington’s economy benefits from a large federal government presence and a substantial private sector employment base located close to its mass transit rail stations.  Further, Arlington is home to over 1,000 attorneys, many of whom belong to the Arlington County Bar Association.
