[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. Aggressively middle of the road might be my exact vibe! Haha. Not politically — our family is ultra liberal, non-traditional. But we are aggressively middle of the road in terms of income and interests and desires for our kids. We just want a normal, happy, healthy life.

My kids are not athletic, so the comment about Burke being super into sports is interesting. They are still young but they are more chess/ reading/drama kids at the moment. [/quote]

I think it might be Fairfax County as a whole, but a lot of families including my own have kids super into sports. [/quote]

This is OP. We’re in Arlington now, and some families are super into sports but many, many are not. One of the high schools has a big sports reputation but not the other two.

We also don’t do Kumon or similar and don’t plan to, and I’ve heard that might make us not the norm in Fairfax Co. It’s rare to do outside enrichment in Arlington, or at least among the people we know. Kids do lots of activities but not academic ones.[/quote]

Your look zones are all over the map - how do you get from living in North ARL which gives you familiarity with ARL/Falls Church/Mclean to Reston/Oakton [Hunter Mill corridor] to Burke/Springfield?   Budget?  Specific type of townhouse or SFH?  Reston is not cheap so why not look also in Mclean ?

A nice area in north Reston is on Lake Anne and goes to Lake Ann/South Lakes https://www.redfin.com/VA/Reston/1676-Moorings-Dr-20190/home/9223848  water views and a dock for a paddle boat!  Another newer North Point is about the same price and is Aldrin/Herndon.  No lake access.  [/quote]
