[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Burke is the up and coming neighborhood in VA that has a good vibe,  good schools and diversity.[/quote]

I live near Burke and like it relative to many of the local suburbs, but there is nothing up and coming about it.[/quote]

Yeah I wouldn't have described it as up and coming either. Burke has decidedly arrived, in all of its suburban glory. lol

Other than the amount of traffic that cuts through every day, it really hasn't changed much in 40 years. It's a feature, really.[/quote]

I don't know about 'up and coming' but would say it's very clear that single family houses in the general Burke area of NOVA are snapped up very quickly, typically with waived contingencies and usually over asking. With telework making it more popular to move to the burbs for more space (but still having access to city amenities on weekends), the area is very popular. It's not particularly walkable though. But for middle class families who couldn't afford the walkable premium without sacrificing space or having to buy a gut job, it's a great middle ground. It's an hour commute or more in rush hour, but on weekends, it's about a half hour to the city.[/quote]
