[quote=Anonymous]I'm from Arlington, live in Centreville. I would say FCPS does MS/HS better than Arlington overall and am pleased with the schools. Elementary can be hit or miss but honestly a solid student who is not at risk will be fine at any school in FCPS (or Arlington). There are a bunch of private schools nearby if that's your preference. We went back and forth about where to live after college and jobs/commute were the decision makers. Arlington has its plusses but it's not worth it if you have to deal with the toll road or 66 every day to get to/from work. I would say the reverse is true, too. We would live in a much smaller place in Arlington if we worked there, rather than fight traffic to commute from further out. There are some very family friendly neighborhoods with a lot of kids and young families and some very good small restaurants and bakeries, but you have to look for them. Almost all of the HOA neighborhoods have very nice pools and that's a plus for most families. [/quote]
