It's a reverse commute to Reston, and if there are children in the school system, Arlington fits the bill for most of what the OP is looking for. There are amazing sports, after school activities and enrichments, and an amazing community feel in all the schools. Not to mention tons of restaurants across all cultures and tastes. [/quote]

LOL!  You do know that all of those things are also available in the Reston/Oak Hill area?  Don't you.  I guess you do not realize that there are tons of sports activities available all over Fairfax--even in Loudoun.  I would even guess that they are more readily available than in Arlington.  It may surprise you to know that there are also restaurants of all cultures.  And, a reverse commute is almost non-existent in Northern Virginia.  From Arlington to Reston is not a ten minute drive under the best of circumstances.  It may even surprise you to know that there are lots of after school activities and enrichments.  Unlike you, I cannot speak for all schools in my community, but I can tell you that there was a great community feel in my kids' school, and I know that lots of other schools in the surrounding area also have that.  How do I know?  Sports friends, etc.
Unlike you, I am not criticizing your community.  Just pointing out that there are many, many communities that would suit OP.  Many with a close commute--which Arlington does not offer.  I have two grocery stores within walking distance, have a school and a swimming pool in walking distance, ethnic restaurants in walking distance, and I live on a quiet cul-de-sac in a quiet neighborhood.  I also live a lot closer to Reston than Arlington.  There are tons of neighborhoods that fit that bill--maybe not the groceries in walking distance.

Where did PP criticize??  you sound bitter. the poster was simply stating his/her point of view and suggestion.. the purpose of the forum.  Relax.
