[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in Great Falls and love it here.  Terrible commute to DC but we work in Reston and only have to go to DC once or twice a month.   It is quiet, bucolic and we see more deer and foxes than neighbors.  There are no sidewalks and nothing is within walking distance and that's just fine.  The schools are great and the community is tight knit because we have to work at staying in touch and connected, via play dates, activities etc.  If you value privacy then you will love it here.   And no, we don't hang out on DCUM where we get insulted occasionally... :-).    [/quote]

Finally something nice about Great Falls!! 
DH would be commuting to Arlington, is it still horrible? if we stay on the southern end thats' closest to McLean?[/quote]

It would depend on which part of Arlington.  DH could go the back way through McLean and miss the toll road traffic.  It would be more scenic but if you are moving from out of the area, rest assured that commuting here is unlike almost anywhere else in the country, bar LA or NY.

OP here - I was born and raised in MoCo, so know it well - very well. we are actually moving back from LA - so traffic in DC does not scare me in the least. its a joke in comparison to DC traffic. That said, I want my DH for once to have a nice short commute to work - aka - between 30-45 mins max.  DH will be working in the crystal city area.

thanks again.[/quote]
