The only thing these two counties have in common is the word "Prince." I would go for PWC any day over PG

Basically true. PG isn't very diverse. It's mostly black and white an very segregate compared to PWC.


This is not true. On our cul-de-sac in PG we have 3 AA families, a Hispanic family, a Middle Eastern family, an Indian family, and a Vietnamese family.

While these events would not be great, it would be better than raising a family among the soul-destroying ugliness and cultural vacuum that is Prince William County. Better than we perish while memories of happier times are still fresh in our minds. That said, there is a nice camp ground in PW forest.

A lot of people don't realize that Prince William County is among the wealthiest counties in the US! http://www.forbes.com/sites/tomvanriper/2013/04/25/americas-richest-counties/

Plenty of wealthy people live here - people who are smart enough not to pay $800,000 for a teardown just because it's in Fairfax County.

It is the only county on the boarder of DC that is left to move to that has reasonable prices. More and more folks are figuring this out and you are seeing the sales happen more and more. Commute is becoming a big selling point more and more every year. Schools, not hot good but that will change over time as parents move into the area and start demanding more from the schools.


Not if parents continue sending their children to private and parochial schools.

This article is 3 years old, but it lists PWC even above MoCo in median income.

I've seen more recent rankings that don't have PWC in the top 10, but the ones I've seen don't go beyond 10, so I'm thinking PWC would still be around number 11, 12, etc. And on those, MoCo isn't in the top 10 either. http://wtop.com/news/2012/02/10-of-top-15-richest-counties-are-in-dc-suburbs/

This is so true


I don't think "poor Blacks ruining the county" is the problem in PG, sorry. You sound ridiculous and racist. PG's problems came before DC's gentrification, and crime is actually dropping now, and more developments are moving in.

I have actually lived both places. I liked PG better - and that is no knock on PWC.

Schools were not an issue because our kids were going Catholic. But we enjoyed being close to DC, Baltimore and Annapolis. PWC felt isolated and the commute into DC was horrifc. Also, TBH in PWC we experienced more crime firsthand than when we lived in PG, but that could be because we had neighbors whose teens were in the pot/drug crowd.

There were pros and cons to both, but we liked PG a little better.
