Why you'd want to live in Loudoun County

For more than two centuries, agriculture was the dominant way of life in Loudoun County, which had a relatively constant population of about 20,000. That began to change in the early 1960s when Dulles International Airport was built in the southeastern part of the county. The airport attracted new businesses, workers, and their families to the area. At the same time, the metropolitan Washington, D.C., area began a period of rapid growth. Major road improvements made commuting from Loudoun County much easier, attracting more and more people to the eastern part of the county. In the last three decades, the population of Loudoun County nearly quadrupled. Today, Loudoun County is a growing, dynamic county of over 400,000 people. Loudoun is known for its beautiful scenery, rich history, a healthy diversity of expanding business opportunities, comfortable neighborhoods, and high-quality public services. via loudoun.gov
