I have a few co-workers who live in Springfield and they love ot but the school scores scared me off. I guess the consensus is that the great school scores are to be ignored. Compared to Montgomery county they’re awful for NoVa.

Really? I'm looking at Great Schools scores for W. Springfield right now and I see:

Irving Middle School 7
West Springfield ES 8
Keene Mill ES 9
West Springfield HS 9
Hunt Valley ES 7
Orange Hunt ES 7
Sangster ES 9

Seems obvious. MoCo wishes it had a few more schools as good as West Springfield.

Why are you here? Don’t you have some 3.0 to launch or a consortium to expand to make MoCo people feel better about their bad options?

If we're cherry picking schools sure but a lot of the HS have awful scores on great school.

OP, here are some newer THs around $700K. Schools are considered good - Marshall pyramid. I only searched in 22043, so all are near either WFC or Dunn Loring metros.

You can also find some older townhomes that feed to various schools at price points under $700K:

Cherry picking? The PP suggested 22152 for a good balance in schools and home prices. There is one high school in 22152 and that's WSHS. All of those schools serve that zip code.
