[quote=Anonymous]I'd price out the commute. If you're going to be driving on the toll road, that toll really adds up. I also don't find housing in Reston to be especially cheap compared to closer-in parts of Fairfax. (I'd check out the neighborhoods feeding into Fairfax HS and maybe Marshall HS to see if I could get closer.) I have friends with kids in feeders to West Potomac HS in the Fairfax County part of Alexandria and they are pretty happy with the schools, even though the rankings aren't high. Their neighborhoods have tons of school-aged kids who use the publics. Many of the families I know in City of Alexandria schools are looking to move before middle school. Plus I think parks & rec services are better in Fairfax County vs. City of Alexandria. (Our family has lived in Fairfax, Alexandria and Arlington at various times.)[/quote]
