Having spent the first 30 years of my life in the DC area (MD and VA suburbs), I have to disagree. Reston puts you within reasonable driving distance of hundreds of great restaurants (of all ethnicities), clubs, museums, monuments, memorials, and general excitement. Just don't try to get to any of it during rush hour, especially not Friday afternoon rush hour :) Willing to make restaurant recommendations off-list :) I'm drooling in rememberance of some of them...I miss African & Middle Eastern food living here in the St Louis boonies.

... Reston is Hell, but with better visuals.
I'm not certain of the truth of this comparison, having only half the data at hand. However, it has to be just about the least interesting place on the whole Eastern seabord to travel to.
