OP here. Thank you. We saw some townhouses that we liked in Cameron Station. What are the schools like in that area?

Not great, but it's a very family friendly neighborhood. I do have friends who live there and send their kids to the elementary school. It goes year round instead of having a summer break.

Check out Vienna and Oakton. Easy commute down 123 for Stafford commuter and metro for DC commuter.

Stay away from Alexandria in Fairfax county. The schools are not that great.

Good luck!

You should google FCPS boundary locator. Enter the address and check out the school profiles.

There is another Virginia Public thread, live now, re Cameron Station and Tucker School. Search for it.
