Herndon, Virginia SperlingViews

I live in Sterling, right over the Fairfax county line in Loudoun County Virginia (yes, the fastest growing county in the country the last time I checked). It is an amazing place to live. We are 25 miles from DC, which we visit often, but this area has its own industry and it's own great restaurants. A few complaints are the traffic and the conservative VA government. But all things considered, the diversity of events in the area, the educated people from all over the world and the seat of the government being right here make it all a great place to live. Also, with three airports at our disposal, we can always shop around for good airfares for escapes. Job outlook and pay is great as well compared to most areas of the country.
