Spotsylvania Courthouse, VA
I love the Spotsylvania County -
5/19/2007Originally from the North, we moved to Virginia in 1998. We first resided in Northern VA as renters, which I also liked, easy commute, plenty of things for county residence to do. Realizing we could not afford a Single Family Home. We decided to look further South. We have been in Spotsylvania County since 2003. ‘Spotsy’ as it is nicknamed is the last stop for the Northern VA region. The nice part is they have a rail that runs into DC, so you don’t have to deal with the horrible traffic; the transit system does however need some updating, better hours for the commuter. The county is growing very fast. The schools are good, seems like a new school is being added to the County every year since we have been here. It seems like the housing market has almost doubled in price since we have been here. If you are raising a family, it is definitely a place you should keep in your radar. I only have one recommendation to the County is we need more things for the youth to do, parks, basketball and tennis courts, County Pools(we only have 1 community pool in our growing county), bike/walking paths. We need to also focus on our health and giving residence something to do. I am noticing a lot of companies are relocating to the area. A lot of shopping centers are also being added to the area.
