[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Growing up in this area, I knew a random kid or two who lived there. Yes, they had a big house with lots of land but they didn't have any neighbors to play with when younger and when we were in high school we didn't want to hang out there either. Nothing to do, long drive from hang out places, too far from other friends and several parents didn't like the drive to get to their homes in the dark- winding roads, no lights, hidden entrances/exits. I think it's a nice area but I think more of retired people or those with much older kids. [/quote] Neighborhoods go through cycles. There was a time when Great Falls was full of kids and FCPS had to build new schools (such as Colvin Run ES, which opened in 2003) to accommodate them. Now the population is older and the schools are under-enrolled, but some people might prefer that to the overcrowded schools in Arlington or near Tysons. At some point the homes will turn over and there will be more younger families. [/quote]
