Safe Distance From Dulles Airport

[Anonymous]

What is a safe distance from a major airport? If I buy a house 2.5 mi from Dulles, I am worried I'll be exposing my family to VOC's. If I buy a house further out, say in Lansdowne, I will be 45 min from my job and kids schools. Anyone know the dangers/ risks?

Danger is everywhere OP there is no escape.

If you do a search online you’ll see research that identifies the 10- mile airport radius as the problem. Look for neighborhoods beyond that radius.

There is no place in the entire DC area (or any other large city, for that matter) that is safe for you. None. Zero. You’re asking for the impossible.

Montana is covered with farms. Have you ever lived near a farm?

Jets overfly 90+% of the country. You will never be further than 10 miles from an aircraft.
