You are looking in the wrong part of the county. You are going to experience culture shock over there. The house poor aspect will not help either.

Unless that area is ideal for your commute, consider looking towards Burke.  Top notch schools and very warm communities.  You will feel much more at home.

I am not sure why there would be culture shock when there are so many transplants in NoVa and there are neighborhoods in these areas of McLean in the OP's price range.   If she was priced out, she'd be looking somewhere else.

If she'll have culture shock, it will probably be that the shopping areas in NoVa aren't as nice as in the Kansas City suburbs like Shawnee Mission, nor are the neighborhoods necessarily as manicured.  That will be the case whether she looks in McLean, Falls Church or Burke.   [/quote]

Another culture shock is probably a lack of big box retailers close by.[/quote]
