[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I moved to Vienna last year from another part of Fairfax Cnty.

We like the area near Nottoway park -- just outside the Town of Vienna tax zone, but close to the park and metro and High Schools.  There are some new 1.4mil houses right across from the park on Courthouse.  We walk in the park regularly and have meant to go to the Thursday night music performances in the summer.  There are always sports teams playing there -- soccer, baseball, football, volleyball, tennis (for adults and kids).  People always out walking their dogs.  Pick up basketball games. It doesn't have a great playground, but those new houses are right next to the VFW lodge and they have a nice playground.

Those houses do not have big lots, but I think they all back to trees.  Might be something to consider if there are any still left.  This area is zoned for Thoreau MS and Madison HS.  The elem. is Marshall Rd, but the AAP center (G/T) is Mosby Woods (9 on Great Schools).

Here is the address of one unit.  2692 Salem Oak Ln
Vienna, VA 22181  The development is called Vienna Grove :  http://www.christophercompanies.com/communities/vienna-grove/

This area is very close to the high school without being right on top of it.

I think the only people who care about being in town or out of town are those who pay the extra taxes for being in the town of Vienna.

I live in one of the townhouses that backs to Nottoway. Obviously OP's budget is greater but we love the park and that community.  Zoned for Mosby Woods. 22181 is very walkable for people who just like to walk but don't need to walk to a coffee shop. Pre-baby we did walk to downtown Vienna every weekend though, and we would see several other couples also making that regular walk. Long, but pleasant. [/quote]
