Not a little town anymore. I tend to call it "Little Fairfax". Tons of people, traffic, yada, yada. It's now a bedroom community for those that crazily want to commute to northern VA, and DC every day. I also thought it had a village, or small town flair, when we moved here in 98.
I live directly behind the Chancellorsville Battlefield, off Rt 3. There are neighborhoods around here that still have evidence of civil war trenches in people's yards. They have just started building a huge neighborhood right on top of where the Chancellorsville battle was. It was all farm land, but not for long. Real shame it couldn't have been preserved. A small portion has been set aside for preservation, and historical purposes.
