[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Centreville is ugly--nothing to do but shop at the endless big box and chain stores. The traffic is a nightmare. It's a long drive to get anywhere to do anything. There are endless townhouses and cookie-cutter developments. You can live there for years and still get lost constantly because everything looks the same for miles and miles.

I wouldn't consider Chantilly a city. It vaguely oozes together with Centreville.

Marshall HS is smack dab in Tysons Corner. I used to live within walking distance to it, and I lived in Tysons Corner.

McLean is a blah suburb, but very convenient to other places.

I'd live in Alexandria if I could afford it.

There aren't any big box stores in Centreville. There are chains like Starbucks and Hallmark and Giant (God forbid!) but our admittedly expansive network of strip malls is at least 70% Asian/Korean specialty stores. Resulting in many delicious restaurants and multiple Asian groceries. We have an awesome Lifetime Fitness, a neat little winery, a shitty movie theatre, and tons of Hispanic day laborers on the sidewalk outside of our library.  And while we do have lots of town houses, don't hate. Ludacris' mama lives in one.[/quote]
