[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking to move to VA from DC and not exactly sure where to look. I'd like to buy a home in an area that has really good public schools that aren't cutthroat competitive and looking for recommendations. Thanks! Also interested in gifted and talented programs. [/quote] The real answer is that, depending on your budget, any place in Fairfax (assume you want Fairfax, since it has the best advanced academic programs in Northern Virginia) will be fine. The only school that really has a reputation for being "cutthroat competitive" is TJ, which is a magnet high school, and even that reputation is probably exaggerated. If you don't care about access to AAP in Fairfax, Arlington is fine, although you'll generally be paying more for housing. [/quote]
