[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would never pick a place to live based on shopping malls. My goal with shopping malls is to spend as little time as possible inside of them. I think I had to go to Tysons once a couple of years ago to return something I bought online, and I'm not eager to go back. [/quote]

It’s not just malls. It’s everywhere you shop. The roads in MoCo have potholes everywhere compared to Arlington and Fairfax. The level of homelessness in MoCo is much higher. There is a more laissez faire attitude about crime and littering in MoCo.

MoCo residents pay more in taxes for a lower QOL and the state still has a $2 billion deficit, which means even more additional taxes are coming. [/quote]

I'm not seeing what you're seeing in MoCo, but just move to Virginia if it will make you happier. Life's too short if you feel that your "QOL" is suffering.

But taxes are going up in Virginia. Two years in a row of property tax hikes in Arlington (not just assessments, the actual rate), and Fairfax is doing the same: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1260050.page. I think it's all the tip of the iceberg with the mass firings of federal employees and contractors.[/quote]
