[quote=Anonymous]It’s too bad you hate the Ffx co pkwy and 50 so much - we live in a neighborhood tucked between those and are walkable to es-hs (because of the roads though, most parents don’t feel comfortable letting kids walk themselves until about 4th grade) We do walk a lot, though - I try to avoid getting in the car for things right in our neighborhood. The library is just across from the HS and while the shopping center at the entrance to our neighborhood is strip mall ish, we walk there on nice days for quick trips to giant or cvs or five below or one of the several restaurants. Our dentist and pediatrician are there, too. There are also parks and playgrounds and trails, including one in the center of our neighborhood that is a trail next to a creek in the woods. We really like our neighborhood and while it isn’t high end, we have a lot here to love. We considered moving during the early days of the pandemic, but we are really spoiled here and don’t want to give up this type of life. I enjoy walking my es child to and from school and can’t help but roll my eyes at my neighbor 2 houses closer that drives kids back and forth daily - it is one block! Anyway, if being close to schools is important and some other walkable amenities, Greenbriar in 22033 (west Fairfax/Chantilly hs area) is a really great choice.[/quote]
