Before you pick a neighborhood
What I tell families heading here
- TIP 01
Route 1 and I-95 back up at rush hour. Test your drive at the time you'd actually commute.
- TIP 02
Fort Belvoir has more than one work area. Confirm where your office is before we narrow neighborhoods.
- TIP 03
Commute to the Pentagon or DC too? VRE and Metro make Lorton, Springfield, and Franconia easy to live with.
Schools
Comparing schools
Every family weighs schools differently. I'll point you to official school district boundaries and state report cards so you can compare for yourself, and I'll make sure the homes we look at are zoned where you want them.
Your base's School Liaison Officer is another great resource. They can help with enrollment, transfers, and special programs.
School assignments can change. Always confirm a home's assigned schools with the school district.
