I totally agree. I think it's acceptable for suburban areas to have some autonomy (in that you can live, work and shop there without having to go into DC) because they contribute to a regional economy and a rising tide lifts all boats. But Loudoun and Fairfax counties probably could've done that without gobbling up so much land.

I'm not clear how much of Loudoun is left for de
Yeah, upper Montgomery County has seen a lot of development since the 1980's, but it would've been a lot worse without the Ag Reserve, which cordoned off 1/3 of the county from development and will hopefully encourage more efficient use of the land that's left.
