[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Herndon, right next to Reston, is a good fit for families. You can find schools that end up at a bunch of different high schools. Fox Mill is walkable, most of the kids walk to school. I can walk to the grocery store, a decent THai restaurant, a good Italian restaurant, the Doctor, dentist, pet store, pet hospital, Glory Days and a good bagel place. There will be a Metro stop about 1 1/2 miles from the neighborhood when the Silver Line expansion opens. Parks (small, school, and a nice size complete with soccer fields and three baseball diamonds), are near by. You woyuld have to join one of two community pools if you want a pool. I know some folks are less excited by South Lakes High School but I have friends who teach there and have not reported any issues outside the normal school issues. The Neighborhood kids who attend South Lakes have good things to say and most are taking some IB tests although I have no idea how many are working on an IB diploma.

People rave about Franklin Farm in there area.

There are a lot of great neighborhoods in the area. With the Silver Line expansion, more of them become a bit more connected with another transportation alternative.

Lake Anne is great, I enjoy hanging out down there. Downtown Herndon is quaint. There is strong community in the area. And there are a large number of reasonably priced houses and town houses in the area.[/quote]

You lost me at people raving about Franklin Farms.  I mean c’mon ....[/quote]
