[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your income is fine at all three areas. The key deciding factor would be what you value. Vienna is the densest by population, with a lot of local businesses, shops, and a town feel. The house lots tend to be smaller, and the homes are fairly cookie-cutter. Great Falls is the most rural feel. There are larger lots, homes are more "unique" which can be a blessing or a curse, depending on the home. Despite having a "rural" feel, its proximity to Sterling and Herndon makes it fairly convenient. McLean is kind of in the middle and offers a mix. You can buy in "south-central McLean" and get homes that are like what you find in Vienna. There is the McLean town center, which is somewhat like Vienna in the mix of businesses, but much smaller. There is also "upper McLean" and "west McLean", both of which are more like Great Falls in lot sizes and rural feel of homes.

Disclosure: we live in west McLean.  [/quote]

I had to read this twice to understand what others said about your passive aggressive tone. You claim to live in West McLean and are suggesting that people in Great Falls need to go to Sterling or Herndon for shopping? It’s a joke to even respond to that so I’ll look into reasons why someone would say that. But first let’s get some facts cleared. You’re like 2-3 minutes away from Great Falls and the only shopping, grocery, banking, gas etc around you is in Great Falls. I don’t live in Great Falls but know people who do. I also know people in what you call west McLean. It’s practically speaking the same area and much more convenient to live in GF than in west McLean because you have your daily needs in GF village. Anything else is +\- 4 minutes depending as to where in DMV you are driving to. So now.. why would someone say something like that? I think OP now has a good taste of the level of low self esteem and snarky comments in BOTH McLean and GF (I’m sure parts of Vienna as well).

DP here. I would complement your post, but am too busy installing the alarms outside our “south central McLean” house.  [/quote]
