First home, Silver Line: Reston/Herndon/Sterling/Ashburn

[Andrew Leung]

I've saved to buy my first home, a new townhouse in one of these areas. They seem pretty similar, but I was wondering if anyone who knows the areas better or has lived there has any preferences, or things to keep in mind? 

From what I can tell, Reston Town Center is pretty nice (for a similar house Reston seems to be an extra $100k over the other areas), and there isn't much to do in Ashburn, etc. I also work from home, so I don't have a commute.

Thanks!
