One resident of Great Falls VA stated, "Great Falls is the perfect suburb to live in. It's about 30 minutes from Washington D.C and 1 hour from some scenic mountains in West Virginia. We also have the famous Potomac River Falls in our backyard. I love the community they have in Great Falls, there is always something going on in the courtyard of the plaza called "the Village", whether it's a small concert with barbeques or a farmers market. Every weekend, we have police cars setting up checkpoints to make sure people are making good decisions before getting behind the wheel. I've absolutely loved the last 11 years of living here and I cannot imagine myself living somewhere else."
Said another, "Great Falls park and river bend park are both good options for getting out and communing with nature. Great Falls park has a fairly spectacular waterfall, miles of hiking of various grades of difficulty, and a lot of good rock climbing routes. I've also seen kayakers braving the rapids below the falls. River bend park is more serene, and is good for picnics and has many hiking trails. There is a boat launch, and the calm river there is great for canoeing and fishing."
It should be noted that Great Falls is an expensive area compared even to other towns in Fairfax County. As another resident pointed out, "Great Falls is a very rich suburban community with beautiful homes.... Homes are incredibly expensive (ours was upwards of 2 million)."
