[quote=Anonymous]I've been looking in Vienna for a while and can afford a house I would be happy with.  Lately, though, I'm wondering if my money is better spent elsewhere.  I could get a slightly newer, slightly larger home for $100,000 - $150,000 less in Chantilly.

All I can really think of that Vienna has to offer (over Chantilly) is the ability to walk to the downtown area with a farmers market, movies in the summer, Santa during the holidays.  Sure these things would be great for my kids, but how often will we really take advantage of these things?  With all the things kids have going on, would we even get downtown once a week?

School wise, sure Vienna (mostly) has better schools.  But the schools in Chantilly (that we would pick) are not bad by any means.

Commuting to work would mostly likely be easier if we lived in Chantilly.

I think of all the money we could save, which means nicer vacations, a nicer house, more fun money, more savings etc.

I've heard from many people who live in Vienna how great it is.  But, maybe they don't know anywhere else.  I've heard good things about Chantilly, but don't really know anyone living there.
