[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family and I are considering relocating to Northern Virginia. I've only visited a few times, and I don't know the area well. I'd love to get opinions on areas that people think we might like living in. Here's what we are looking for:

* "Good" public schools. We originally were looking at Washington DC but it seems that many of the public high schools in DC have worse educational outcomes compared to Northern VA. 
 * Diverse community. 
 * Walkable/bikeable community. Ideally, the community would have sidewalks and we could do basic errands(get coffee, lunch, etc) on foot or by bike.
 * Single family homes with a small yard for under 1.8M.
 * Since we won't be commuting, we don't care about proximity to Metro or common work locations like DC, Tysons, etc.
 * A sense of community! Many areas I drove through were long sidewalk-less roads with developments off to the side with names like "windwood estates" etc. Are there areas of Northern Virginia that have more of a community feel with a distinct downtown etc?[/quote]
Bluemont/Bon Air in Arlington. Near a lot of biking trails. Relatively diverse for Arlington. Decent schools. Walkable to Ballston.

I think Falls Church City would also work. [/quote]
