[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in DC and consider myself pretty urban but for various reasons have lived in various parts of NOVA for the last 13 years. I went to grad school at GMU and find that the city of Fairfax has changed a lot in the last 5-10 years and really think that OP should consider it in addition to Vienna. I have lived in both and actually prefer Fairfax City, but yes, there are some good restaurants on Maple Ave. I live in Arlington now and prefer that to anywhere else in NOVA, but with the budget and commute issues I think City of Fairfax is the way to go. OP you could afford a decent place in S. Arlington (which I love) but the commute for your husband would not be good (too far from 66 and 495). Also some people hate the schools, but really they are fine. Good luck OP! I agree with renting for at least the first year unless you find a place you love in Fairfax City. [/quote]
