The hardest part about moving to a new city is that everything feels unfamiliar. The best way to get to know the city is to spend time exploring it. During your first few weeks in your new city, spend time walking around and getting to know your new home. Of course, for safety reasons, be conscious of what time you explore and the areas you choose to explore.
In Arlington, VA, we recommend exploring:
You just moved to a new city. In order to help this new place feel like home, it is important to be willing to try new things. For example, maybe you aren’t a die-hard yogi, but you noticed a bunch of people your age doing yoga in the park. Consider joining them one day! Stepping out of your comfort zone and trying new things will make your new city feel like home in no time.

One of the easiest ways to instantly get to know people around the city is to introduce yourself to your neighbors. Not only will meeting the people living around you help to provide a sense of comfort, even if you aren’t instantly best friends with your neighbors, it may help you to network yourself to later find friends.
It is important to give yourself some credit for your transition. You moved to a new city you’re unfamiliar with and likely do not know many people. Yet, you’re still working on carving out your own path in the city. On the days or nights where you question your move, or miss your former home, go easy on yourself. With any major transition, it is important to give yourself credit for how far you’ve come.
If you are moving to a booming city such as Arlington, VA, you may not get the living space you were once used to having in your former city. Unfortunately, with a smaller home or apartment, the amount of storage space available to you will also be smaller. In order to prevent your home from being too cluttered, consider renting a storage unit.
