[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think ppl like Vienna bc of its quaint town feel but in actuality, there is nothing going on. The “Main Street” consists of a consignment shop, a clock shop that no one goes into and other random undesirable businesses and restaurants. The housing prices are exorbitant with huge houses on small pieces of land.  And now all these new builds in town are UGGO and taking away any of the charm that Vienna initially had. They are throwing up these modern monstrosities in the midst of what used to be more traditional and colonial houses. [b]I’d choose GF over it in a heartbeat![/b] [/quote]

You must be kidding.  Great Falls is SO isolated and only good if you work from home or are retired and never want to go anywhere.  And many of the people are in a perpetual state of anxiety about whether they are going to get redistricted out of their snooty Langley HS to more diverse Herndon HS.  The big new houses getting built in Vienna aren't that different from a lot of the houses in Great Falls, but they are on smaller acreage so you actually have a chance of getting to know your neighbors and your kids have a chance of developing some independence because they can walk places on their own rather than get driven everywhere.

Now is Vienna "quaint" like some New England village or small town in the Mid-Atlantic?  Not really, but it at least has a sense of community and some nice places to hang out.  That can't be said for Great Falls, which has mostly become a place for ostentatious arrivals to the DMV to show off their newly acquired wealth.  Yuck.  [/quote]
