[quote=Anonymous]We live in the exurbs (Warrenton in Fauquier County) and still work in DC. We are both lawyers, non-litigation, and telework 3-4 days a week. Most of the people we know do not commute to DC but there are some. We moved out here because we wanted more space, and even on our income (not Biglaw) we could not afford what we wanted closer in. We genuinely love it out here. We live in walking distance to old town Warrenton so there is some walkability, my kids walk to middle school and then to get ice cream or a snack with friends, there is little crime, we walk home from dinner after dark and don’t think twice about it, and it is just beautiful country. The only thing we’ve missed from our old life close in is the restaurant choices. If you are a city person the exurbs aren’t going to be for you, but if you are already out in the suburbs and don’t go into DC other than for work I much prefer being in the exurbs. [/quote]
