WHERE WE LIVE | The Fairfax County, Va., community is where residents who run the gamut from young families to retires want to return — and stay.
Hellmann, 32, said the neighborhood rallied around her, helping her grow her studio from six students to 18 within months. They are mostly neighbors who attend the schools and orchestra classes she once did.
Craig Roblyer, who has lived in Briarwood since 2013, has three sons who graduated from Robinson Secondary School, the same high school Hellmann attended. When his sons competed in rowing competitions, Roblyer’s neighbors would join him on the Occoquan River to watch the race from the water. “During covid, the neighborhood association got this food truck to come once a week,” Hellmann said. “And then it was like this little socializing thing. … All the neighbors were going, and you can distance there and you’re outside, so you’re waiting for your food and you’re able to chat.”
Roblyer and his family initially rented a house in Briarwood. But after spending time in the neighborhood, he said, he and his wife knew it was where they wanted to settle and eventually retire. Their experience once they bought a home reaffirmed their decision.
