[quote=Anonymous]We weighed this issue 6 years ago when we bought a home. Reston and Alexandria are both nice places for families. The major difference is the commute and the schools. We bought a home in Alexandria/FFX county off GW pkwy. The area is already developed and it’s not overbuilt. Beautiful mature trees, a woodsy feel, close to the River and Old Town. I commute to the Navy Yard in rush hour and it takes 40-45 minutes from my front door to my desk. We put our kids in parochial schools. There are several good ones in the area that are K-8 and a good high school. UMC families in my neighborhood also send their kids to the public schools, so I think there’s also a good cohort there.
