[QUOTE="Ryngard, post: 2704784, member: 23849"] Yeah, we are kinda nuts in our little area! :) I live in Front Royal (roughly a 40-50min drive from Manassas/Dulles/Chantilly area) and everyone in our area seems to freak out when the word snow is mentioned. It's like they never had snow before, they act like we are being attacked by aliens or at war. All of the areas are pretty decent overall, though in some of the larger cities there is an epidemic of gang activity in the last few years and it is spreading and getting worse but it isn't too bad. It's pretty obvious where you should and shouldn't be. I highly suggest that for Dulles you look into the nearby areas (even as far out as Front Royal area) like Vienna, Gainsville, Manassas, etc. I'd not suggest Arlington, though nearby Annandale isn't bad. Dulles proper is pretty nice from what little I've seen (I've only really gone to the airport) and Chantilly/Centreville have the best LFGS around (Games Parlor)! Nice area if you can get a quiet suburb or something like that. Our entire area has had a housing price boom in recent years (i.e. my house five years ago was worth roughly 75-85k. It is now appraised at 210k). And that is in the "country" in Front Royal... I can't imagine what Dulles/Manassas would cost to buy. MOST people who work in the larger cities like 30-60 mins away in a smaller community and commute. I HIGHLY suggest doing so if you can afford it. [/QUOTE]
