EYA Neighborhood News

People who are exploring a new place to live often focus on tangible, measurable considerations: The size of their desired home and the cost of their rent or mortgage; the school choices for their children; or the availability of particular amenities like Metro access. That makes sense, of course, since these factors are often non-negotiable items that affect our bottom line. A far less tangible factor that’s just as important for wellbeing and happiness is the community we become part of: The people we see every day or even a few times a month, the shops and restaurants we regularly frequent, and the essential workers who keep our neighborhoods safe and running smoothly.

For over 30 years, EYA has understood the benefits of townhome living and has built more than 6,000 new townhomes across the greater Washington D.C. area. And while our homeowners have long known that townhomes can offer a low-maintenance lifestyle with walkability to nearby amenities and a strong sense of community among neighbors, a recent article in the Washington Post titled "The new American Dream should be a townhouse" offers perspective on why townhomes are not only a good choice for homebuyers, but for cities and the environment as well.
