We pay taxes to fund the police and public schools

Born in Fairfax and went to catholic high school here. I maintained friendships with most of my high school friends in my early 20s (once I came back from college) but then life happened and people gradually moved etc. In Nova the farther away from Arlington you get the more locals you meet. It’s funny to me when people mention Annandale as a foodie hotspot when I would grab food there all the time as a kid
