Fairfax County
A coveted area for families and DC commuters alike, Fairfax is a perfect combination of urban and suburban culture.
Connected by major highways and railways, Fairfax County entertains the established towns of Vienna, Herndon, Alexandria and many more. Sitting close to the nation’s capital, and conveniently near Dulles International Airport, it's home to seven Fortune 500 companies. Fairfax is home to over one million people, and the abundance of jobs and close proximity to the capital makes for a varied and rich culture seldom matched elsewhere.
Fairfax was the first U.S. county to reach a six-figure median household income and has the second-highest median household income of any county-level local jurisdiction, next to neighboring Loudoun. Of course, as with so many areas of Virginia, there are abundant historical attractions, such as George Washington’s own, Mount Vernon. With endless options and opportunities, business, shopping, and fun are easy to find.
