Montgomery County might be a better alternative for you. Housing prices are also cheaper because Maryland just can't attract companies like Amazon and has one middling state university and a bunch of red brick colleges and universities that train baristas.
Grew up in NOVA and gladly moved to MD when it came to buying our home and raising our children. Great schools, both private and public, diverse and open-minded population. Virginia has tried to leave the Confederate-loving, bumpkin identity behind, but it is obviously still there. But tell me more about those housing prices. Really, who would want to move into the Loudoun school district now?

Exactly! And most voters won't even be aware of this.

No, Youngkin says it's the parents' choice, regardless of what the individual school districts or schools say.
From his Executive Order:
The parents of any child enrolled in a elementary or secondary school or a school based
early childcare and educational program may elect for their children not to be subject
to any mask mandate in effect at the child’s school or educational program.
No parent electing that a mask mandate should not apply to his or her child shall be
required to provide a reason or make any certification concerning their child’s health
or education.
A child whose parent has elected that he or she is not subject to a mask mandate should
not be required to wear a mask under any policy implemented by a teacher, school,
school district, the Department of Education, or any other state authority.

Apparently diversity, equity and inclusion have no place in the Youngkin administration.

Why do you think Amazon is going to stay in Va? Business are already fleeing. This is what you get when you use the government to take away individual freedoms. Youngkin and the company have to go. Time to issues a recall or impeach him.

+1. Governor Trump is trying to strip localities’ ability to make their own decisions on this based on local conditions, and instead put all control in Richmond’s hands. Classic Republican big government.
Don’t blame it on Richmond, please. We don’t want him.
