[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ashby ponds in Ashburn. Along with Green Springs, it's an Erikson retirement community. Ashby ponds is newer and nicer, but Greensprings is closer in.[/quote] Ashby ponds is very nice , but it is in the middle of nothing. Nothing within walking distance. Nada. OP, keep in mind that "an hour" from DC means very different things at different times of the day, and also is actually a huge distance in the event of problems. When my MIL broke her hip, her home 30 miles west of DC suddenly seemed much too far away. DH had to drive out during rush hour after work, day after day, and attending any medical appointments with her meant taking off at least a half day of work because of the travel time. After that, we lobbied hard to get her to move closer to us. Now she lives just a few miles away and it is so much easier. DH can stop by over lunch hour if she needs anything. Our teenagers can visit more frequently, too, which she really likes.[/quote]
