Worst things about Lorton nobody talks about

Hello, My family moved here when I was a kid. With a population of 21,961, Lorton is a small town. You can expect to pay around $2,537 for rent here. Average temperature is around 54--F, so expect cold winters. The unemployment rate is 3.4%, which is pretty low. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. What are your go-to spots? Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The weather takes some getting used to. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

I've been living here for 1 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The safety is challenging compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..
