[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Certain school pyramids in Herndon are great (Fox Mill, Rachel Carson, SLHS) but not sure if those neighborhoods are as close to old town Herndon as you'd like--and I do agree that the area is very cute. [/quote]

Zip code 20171 (Herndon/Oak Hill) are not in town of Herndon, it's misleading to call Fox Mill as Herndon.  Franklin Farm south of Fox Mill is also in 20171 but their kids goes to Oakton High, a highly ranked high school.  I think OP is thinking Herndon downtown as walkable "cute" community since he/she is from DC.  I am not sure if she's thinking about joining the 'burbs. [/quote]

NP and I know that OP is talking about old town Herndon; however someone saying the houses in 20171 are not Herndon is not being misleading. The address is literally Herndon, VA.[/quote]

But it IS misleading. No one in 20171 is part of the Town of Herndon. We don't get the TOH Rates at the community center. We don't go to HES or HMS or HHS or a couple of other schools located actually in Herndon.

Once the Oak Hill Post Office was built, people started referring to 20171 as Oak Hill, VA. YES - you can still use Herndon, VA in your address but we are NOT actually in Herndon, as in the Town of.

It's actually a pretty small area -- map: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herndon,_Virginia#/media/File:Herndon_Virginia_CDP.png
