[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The real NoVA prestige ranking from real NoVA insiders

T1
- Tysons (convenient, booming development, concentrated wealth, Cap1)
- Del Ray (proximity to DC, local charm, JD Vance + other celebrity residents)

T2
- Great Falls (old money, estates)
- Old Town, Rosemont, Beverly Hills (cultured, pedigreed owners)
- Arlington - Clarendon-Ballston Corridor (Walkable, up and coming, food, proximity to DC)

T3
- McLa(m)e (chopped up, pastiche of 60s-80s homes well past their prime, traffic)
- Arlington - everywhere else (disconnected, patchy, some nice places)
- Fairfax (Vienna, Oakton, etc. - hardcore suburbs) 
- Centreville (good food but too far)

T4
- Loudon county (data centers as neighbors)
- Manassas (peaceful but civil war ghosts)
- Burke (nice lake, too far)

Dumpster
- Route 1 alexandria
- Everywhere else

This has to be a comedy post. Clarendon-Ballston corridor up and coming? Maybe 25 years ago. Haha. [/quote]

Route 1 from amazon to fort Belvoir is being bulldozed and redone over next 4 yrs. 1 billion invested so far. Many business are now bought/boarded up and being flattened. Will be interesting if they pull it off. [/quote]

I live off route 1 (and DGAF about its tier). It has been interesting how much they are building over here - I was surprised at how many ‘nice’ businesses have opened and are opening nearby (a first watch, a club Pilates, Orangetheory, etc.) I am not a fan of the dumpy garden style apartments and wish they would raise them, but you do have most everything you need close by.

The garden apartments are suppose to be torn down along with the old motels. [/quote]
