[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Vienna is interesting.  If you live near the metro, you can have a seriously easy commute to DC (length depending on your stop of course) and beautiful park, trails, and green areas close to home; there are some really lovely neighborhoods of both THs adn SFH's all super close to the metro.  But, if you live by the metro its a longer trek to the main drag of town of Vienna - you are more likely to drive or bike to those areas.  As a location though generally, it's really well situated between DC and jobs out West like in Reston, moving here gave us a lot more job options as we could go either direction to our works mulitple buildings.  Something to consider depending on your work future expectations.  Also re diversity - yes, NOVA In general is not super diverse, but south Vienna is waaaaaay more diverse then town of Vienna.  Lots of international orgs have housed people close to the metro - IMF, World Bank, etc are common employers of neighbors.  The neighborhoods in that part of Vienna are way more diverse (eastern euro, african, etc).  [/quote]

Vienna Metro is shut down through at least Labor Day and it’s just a hellish commute overall to DC, whether by Metro or car.

Overall people tend to exaggerate walkability in NoVa.  Old Town and Del Ray in Alexandria are the best, but ACPS is not good. Clarendon and FCC have better schools, and OK walkability, but the retail is bland.  McLean and West Falls have the best schools, but limited walkability and retail. [/quote]
