An Affluent Suburban Haven - 3/21/2019
Leesburg has grown from a sleepy county seat to a super suburb with terrific parks & rec facilities, an outlet mall, great restaurants (many within the historic old town area), live entertainment venues, and a growing nightlife for young professionals. The mixed-use developments at Wegmans Plaza and One Loudoun are great spots to have a nice meal, do a little shopping, enjoy a spiffy cocktail, relax on outdoor plazas with fountains and play spaces for kids, or to see a movie. Much more relaxed and kid-friendly than the Reston Town Center.
Terrific options for hiking and biking, lots of sports teams for kids, and a huge growth in medical facilities and quality healthcare. Wine lovers will appreciate the local vineyards, as well as many mid-to-upscale restaurants that take their wine service seriously. Summers have lots of free live events, including live music, classic car shows, and a massive home & garden show.
Metro rail is coming to neighboring Ashburn,

More expensive than most, but good jobs,lots to do - 5/10/2017
Leesburg and the surrounding Loudoun County have high real estate costs, but also high paying jobs/careers. We are close enough to a major metro area (DC) to enjoy all the benefits of places to go and see.
Also, the country is minutes away and the mountains and ocean are only an hour and 3 hours respectively.
Very family oriented with great schools, churches, activities, etc.

Leesburg VA (Northern Virginia) - 9/8/2007
Leesburg is a very nice place to live. People are friendly, the community has events running all summer long. I would say it is a very kid-friendly place to live. The biggest drawback from much of Northern Virginia is affordability. The real estate prices have increased dramatically over the past few years and if you were not fortunate to get into the market early, then your salary may need to exceed the national average by 2-3 times in order to live in a single family home.
There is one other significant issue to recognize in Leesburg. The traffic travelling east for work (McLean - DC) is terrible. During the school year one needs to be on the road by 6:30AM or face long delays.
