Review of Fairfax, Virginia


ugh!
Star Rating - 4/9/2006
I have lived in a lot of places, some great, some considered "armpits," but Fairfax is far and away the worst place you can ever choose to live. It is more expensive and traffic congested than Manhattan (I've lived there) and has nothing to offer culturally (unless you count stip malls). It can best be visuallized as one big swath of highway to DC with a bunch of ugly, overpriced homes lining the curbs... STAY AWAY!!
