FCC taxes are high, but completely worth it for for us because of the quality of life and schools. Let's face it, this whole area is expensive.

wouldn't that be arlington?

or when you say EFC do you mean the area around EFC metro?


Both. EFC (neighborhood and Metro station) are in Arlington County. It used to be part of the then-town of Falls Church and petitioned successfully to become part of Arlington County in the 1930s. Some people think the rest of Falls Church City ought to do the same given the high taxes in FCC.


A new tax rate of 1.345 is under consideration in FCC this year.

EFC metro lot is very small and fills up early, but I can recommend the Ballston mall parking lot. $105/month and it never fills up, and there's (for now) a skyway to the metro. Then you have both the orange and silver lines. (Pro tip: if there's a full orange train on the platform and a silver line coming in 2-3 minutes, wait for silver. it'll be half-empty.)
