Arlington’s Urban Villages

Courthouse: Civic Duty, Community Fun Courthouse may have been named for the Arlington County government and judicial offices there, but this urban village is much more. Courthouse boasts plenty of restaurants and bars, a movie theater, and several hotels. Plus, each Saturday, it’s home to the Arlington Farmers Market and Arlington Urban Village Market, where you’ll mingle with locals as you browse wonderful local foods and a variety of crafts.

Featuring three celebrity chefs in a row, award-winning Synetic Theater, outdoor movie nights, wine tastings, bike races and regular 5k runs, there is always something fun going on. It is also one of the most easily accessible areas - just across the river from Washington, D.C., and walking distance from Reagan National Airport.
