Northern Virginia Retirement Communities around Washington, DC -- a fast-developing Area and within commute to DC - Keep Updated with this Guide. There are a variety of retirement communities located here--urban, country, large and small.

With the tremendous amount of development in general going on in this suburban area of Wash., DC, probably due to the access to government jobs in a slower economy, we expect we may see more retirement communities although this market has slowed for now.

The Northern Virginia area is good for those who wish to continue working or want to be close to family but there are other areas of Virginia that are good for retirement as well. Virginia is a large state with large areas of open space. Our list is the most comprehensive you will find for all over 55 communities in Virginia.
