DCA Area Places to Live Suggestions
Considering moving to the DCA area. At first glance it seems that one would have to move to NW VA to find "reasonable" housing prices and cost of living options. Additionally we place great importance on area churches (Christian) and have 3 young kids just entering elementary school and so far we've elected to send them to public schools. Ideally we'd be searching for an area where the drive to Dulles is 1 hour 20 mins (ish) or less. I've always personally loved the Shenandoah Valley but we're open to areas in Maryland, PA and WVA as well. Anyway, any and all suggestions are appreciated. Grew up in western, NC so really looking forward to the prospects of getting back to the east coast.
