[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grew up here in the 70s and 80s. It was not southern. It was not as diverse as it is now but my schools had a lot of Asian kids and there were lots of military and state dept families that had lived overseas. It was not at all southern. While there’s been a ton of development, I actually think it was more similar than different by the 80s. My kids are in a different FCPS school pyramid but there’s a lot that’s very familiar to me having grown up here. [/quote] Maybe in Fairfax, but my parents were farmers in Sterling and Ashburn during those times. [/quote] Agree. I grew up in Springfield in the 80s and it was not at all southern. All my neighbors were military families and northern transplants like my parents who had moved here for government jobs. Maybe further out it was different, or 10-20 years earlier.[/quote]
