Review of Manassas, Virginia


Living in Manassas
Star Rating - 10/23/2007
Living on the edge of the Manassas Battlefield is fun. As an amateur history buff there are a number of historical sites worth visiting. Bull Run National Park provides plenty of open space to envision one of the First Battlefields of the Civil War. Old town Manassas preserves a feel of small town America. We are also close to the new Smithsonian Air and Space Museum close to Dulles Airport which is a gem. Proximity to Washington, DC (an hour away on a good traffic day) is a plus.

The major problem here is traffic. Even though we are 40 miles from Washington, DC, traffic problems dominate the area. There will never be enough roads to support the population and mass transportation has hardly made a dent.
