Price: $465,000 : 7104 Galgate Dr, Springfield, VA 22152 || Beds: 3 || Baths: 2 || Half-Baths: 2 || Living Area: 1,254 || Days On Market: 70 || || Rolling Valley || Buyer’s Rebate From Nesbitt Realty: $2,213 || MLS: FX10049461 But my post isn't about this house in Fairfax County. This is about some of what I like about Springfield. I'd like to highlight just a few reasons residents love Springfield VA:
  • I love the parks around Springfield including Lake Accotink Park and the Hidden Pond Nature Center. There are also numerous smaller parks in nearly every neighborhood in Springfield.
  • The revitalized Springfield Town Center is a bustling hub for great restaurants and stores.
  • The ToughNickel.com says that Springfield is one of the best communities in Northern VA to raise a family and that is accurate by my estimation.
  • The Franconia/Springfield Metro and Van Dorn Metro stations both serve the Springfield area.
