North Stafford vs. South Stafford (Quantico: high school, college, quality of life)

[AMT660]

Hello,

Can someone explain to me the difference between North Stafford and South Stafford? Is there a big difference between the schools and quality of life? What is the boundaries of the areas (zip codes, etc.)?

N. Stafford is quiet, and closer to Quantico. In my opinion, it is nicer. I have only been here for five months, and lived the first two in S. Stafford, and last three in N. Stafford.

I lived in North Stafford and went to high school there. I know that South Stafford is a bit more rural, North Stafford is a bit more suburban.

I loved living there. It has CHANGED so much, but I do think there are positives to that. Some of the people that I went to high school with are actually teachers at the high school now. I think that says a lot about the school and the area. So many of my friends have continued to lived there (after attending college) and are raising their families there as well.

I suppose in making your decision, you'd have to really ask yourself what you are looking for in a community.
