Tesla Cybercabs are showing up all over Northern Virginia

Tesla’s futuristic gold Cybercab has been spotted in Tysons, Rosslyn, Arlington and on the Beltway — raising questions about whether Northern Virginia could be on the company’s robotaxi roadmap.

Driving the news: NBC Washington transportation reporter Adam Tuss posted video Thursday of a Tesla Cybercab driving through Tysons, saying the vehicle appeared to be “mapping” roads. A human driver was behind the wheel as backup.

It wasn't an isolated sighting. Keegan Bursaw photographed a Cybercab on I-495, David McGraw reported seeing one in Arlington, and D.C. reporter Martin Austermuhle…

If you’re a Bridgerton fan, then you’ll especially like Scarlet Spring Farms and their latest Bridgerton-inspired function. The farm is planning a high…

Welcome to Northern Virginia. If you are looking at a map, it is that odd-shaped wedge at the top of the Commonwealth, separated from Maryland by the Potomac River and separated from the rest of Virginia by a massive cultural shift. Locals call it "NoVA."

To the outsider, NoVA might just look like the suburbs of Washington, D.C., but to the millions who live here, it is a complex, high-energy, traffic-obsessed, diverse, and surprisingly beautiful region that functions as the economic engine of the state. It is a place where you can find a spy museum, a 300-year-old tavern, a billion-dollar data center, and a working farm all within a twenty-minute drive of one another.

This is everything you need to know about the counties, the cities, the food, the…

Arlington County, Virginia didn’t just land on another “best places to live” list.

It ranked #1 in the entire country for large communities on the AARP Livability Index — a data-driven ranking that evaluates how well a place actually works for daily life. You can explore the full index here: https://livabilityindex.aarp.org/

What makes the AARP Livability Index different

NoVa Pop Culture Pride: Movies That Were Filmed or Take Place In Northern Virginia.  

 

Northern Virginia is not the first place that comes to mind when you think of movies. D.C gets far more attention from the film industry. However, proximity to the U.S capital gives Northern Virginia an opportunity to be a part of the world of movies too. The film scene here is mostly associated with political narratives and colonial-era historical dramas, which are mostly excluded from the list, as it’s all too common and predictable. Besides these genres, there are still— surprisingly— so many types of movies that were (partially) made in Northern Virginia. Whether you want to check these locations out or just want another Northern VA fun fact to add to your…
