OP here. no one has mentioned great falls yet. why?

also, please explain the recent declines in school ratings in Arlington. I was all set on North Arlington then read the school reviews and was totally disappointed. FWIW, not interested in TJ. I have average kiddos - smart but not freaks of nature :O

This is where I live! And I do love it. But if I could live anywhere without compromising on the house or schools, I'd probably move to Old Town Alexandria.

Since it's hypothetical, I also have lots o'mollah, so I can just find the kiddie a damn private school if I decide the public schools aren't good enough for my little snowflake.


Op was asking about NoVa, not the LaLaLand.

Undoubtedly, that person is one of the Haycock parents. they are all freaking out about their large class sizes. Give her a second and she'll blame it all on the AAP center.

Interesting. I live on the opposite side of that intersection (in Falls Hill). Schools are Shrevewood/Kilmer/Mashall. It;s the best deal for the money!

I'd love to live close to the intersection of Haycock and Rt 7, so that I'd be in walking distance to the main strip of businesses on 7 and the WFC metro. The schools would be Haycock/Longfellow/McLean.
