I have lived in Northern Virginia my entire life. I grew up in Gainesville when it was mostly cornfields, I’ve watched Ashburn transform into "Data Center Alley," and I’ve sold real estate in every corner of this region, from the quietest cul-de-sacs in Haymarket to the busiest high-rises in Arlington.

But recently, I realized something: I have never driven from the furthest suburb all the way to the city line in a single day to compare them side-by-side.

 

So, I decided to do something different. I grabbed my team—Mal, Vince, and Peter—and we hopped in the car for an epic driving tour. Our mission? To rank every major town in Northern Virginia based on lifestyle, traffic, amenities, and that hard-to-define "vibe."

As reported by Michael Neibauer of the Washington Business Journal, another massive data center land deal just dropped in Northern Virginia — this time in Leesburg.

According to public records, JK Land Holdings, led by Chuck Kuhn (the CEO of JK Moving Services in Sterling), sold 97 acres of fully entitled data center land for $615 million to an affiliate of SDC Capital Partners.

It’s that incredible time of year in Northern Virginia. The air is crisp, Halloween decorations are up, and the entire landscape is exploding into a masterpiece of red, orange, and yellow. We live in one of the most beautiful places in the world to see autumn foliage. In fact, I have a friend from Los Angeles who flies out here almost every year—twice now—just to see it.

For many, "fall foliage" means one thing: heading to Skyline Drive. And look, you can't go wrong with the views up there. But let's be honest about the reality of a weekend trip: sitting in a traffic jam just to get into the park at Front Royal while people direct traffic like it's a Taylor Swift concert.

You don't have to do that.
