[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm also considering whether to buy a house in Bluemont. It seems like a great neighborhood with a lot of young families, parks, trails, not far from metro, etc., but it doesn't get as much attention as neighborhoods like Lyon Village (which don't have as many parks and trails). What am I missing here? [/quote] It's much further from the metro, and the metro that it is near is Ballston. Have you been to Ballston?! That said, Ballston mall is being renovated, the crummy safeway near ATS is being demolished and rebuilt as a fancy safeway + apartments, so redevelopment and growth is a good option. Also, the schools are not considered as strong; Ashlawn is very good but it is more diverse than more No Arl schools, which some people avoid (though honestly I think it and ASFS have very similar demographics). Kenmore middle school is probably a bigger issue, as a middle school it is considered a bit weak though the facility is gorgeous.[/quote]
