Now, this station is very congested usually in the morning. If you're catching the C21, C22, that…read moregoes to places like Six Flags America and PG College, be prepared to stand because most of the time, it's crowded. The station is clean and it has a parking lot. I wouldn't say that the people are friendly, but no one bothers me (lol). Like any other station, you have some weirdo's; just ignore them and you'll be fine. The good thing about this station is that you're within walking distance from Addison Plaza, so if you're hungry, thirty, or just want to shop a little you're just minutes away.

Be prepared to inhale clouds of cigarette smoke once you come to this metro station. I arrive to…read morethis station around 7:45 every morning to go to work. I then walk a short distance, past all the people "posted up" against the rail to the C 21,22,29 Bus stop to find a crowd of people standing as closely to the curve as possible, in a "I'm getting on first" fashion. In the midst of that clutter, there is always some middle aged bum with a beard that pulls out a Marlboro 100 and lights it - he inhales his cancer stick, and spews out the remains into the air where all the school kids are waiting as well. I felt so bad for this one kid standing behind him as he blew the smoke right into her face. Also, forget about getting a seat on the bench - There is always this young gal and her 5 kids taking up all the seats. She is sure to sit them sparingly throughout the bench while she watches them from a distance and takes her much needed "smoke break". If her kids don't take up all the seats, her bags will. But wait - there is more! The guys are atrocious! They will squeeze their way unto a bench, and if you walk up and even look at them - they will pretend your not their, or blast their music so they cant even hear you ask too sit. When the bus arrives - they pop up and run to the front and will look at you like your retarded if ask for their seat (which most woman don't, they just end up standing on this overly crowded, loud, long bus ride). The Hispanics only get up for their kind, and the young black guys are just a joke when it comes to chivalry. I only seen a young black male get up once for someone and in him I said "humanity restored". Well this is just a sum up of what you will expect at this station.

I knew getting around DC on the 4th of July 2026 weekend was going to be horrible, so when looked…read moreat ways to get around I landed on Yellow Cab of Dc. Christopher set me up with a cab for the day on Thursday ( a whole lot cheaper than a limo) so we could do Arlington, Mt. Vernon and back. The rest of the weekend I used the YCDC App and it worked beautifully. Again, no limos, but timely, nice drivers and easy. We tried to get an Uber once, but ended up going back to Yellow Cab. We had a wonderful time celbrating the 250th, and YCDC took away the travel worries I had envisioned. I will use them again.

I only went looking for an alternative to uber & Lyft to save money during rush hour. My kid goes…read moreto school about a 15min drive from home, but no one is able to pick him up and he's too young to take the multiple busses it would take to get home. I used the YC mobile app & web app twice to get him a ride. Both times it said the driver would arrive in 4 mins--guess that's their default--but actually arrived in 15+ mins. When you book, they just tell you the ride is confirmed, but don't give you any information about the driver or how long it'll take for a few good long minutes. After a loooong wait, it says your driver is 4 mins away. The last time I booked with them, I watched the car on the app that had confirmed just sit, not move an inch, for probably 5 minutes solid. Geographically he was super close. Then for about 8 minutes he just inched along until he did finally reach the neighborhood. BUT, he whizzed right by the school and went down the street and just sat there. I called the service number 3 times-- it's just an automated machine. You can request to speak to the driver. Each of the three times I selected it, hoping to let him know that the school was behind him, it ring once and then hung up. After waiting for 16 minutes total for a car that was in the beginning had been like a 6-minute drive away, I cancelled the ride and ordered an uber for $8 more, which arrived in precisely 4 minutes.

Today would be the first time that ai had ever ventured into this metro station. In fact, I rarely…read moreeven come to PG County on the Metro. This station seems pretty generic, but it appears that it is maintained less than other stations in the city. What I mean is that you can see rusting benches and this canopy contraptions that surround some of the benches. The Station Manager who worked today was very friendly though, and he even asked !e if I needed some help as I was reviewing the transit price chart. That rarely happens in a Metro station. Usually the Managers in the booths barely even acknowledge you.

Currently the Branch Ave Metro is undergoing some repairs and renovations. Passengers are bussed to…read moreother metro stops via a coach bus that is either express or makes stops prior to arriving at Southern Avenue Metro Station. There is a lot of congestion for people leaving and entering since there are only a few entry points. People don't have their fare card out or find out when trying to enter/exit they have no funds on their card and have to get out of the way. The people who are supposed to clean the train do so haphazardly and do enough to look busy. Sadly, people are disrespectful and smoke marijuana on the train with no regard to kids, elders or nonsmokers. Keep your head on a swivel. When school is in session, the teenagers that ride the train are rude, can be aggressive and love to put their bags or feet in the seat when there are seniors or working folks who'd like to take a load off of their tired feet. Best advice is to keep the peace unless you have to speak up. Fare evading is real. Those who do it, do so blatantly. Security on the train is minimal and you shouldn't expect them to do much. Out of necessity, people ride the train and if other options were viable, they'd probably reconsider. However, it's a benefit to have a metro system as an alternative to driving and having to search for parking that has inflated prices.
