Reston is one of the region’s most thoughtfully planned communities. Rather than separating residential areas from recreation and commerce, Reston was designed with a network of trails, parks, lakes, neighborhoods, and village centers woven together.
The result is a community where daily life can feel unusually active and connected. Residents can walk or bike along miles of trails, spend time around one of Reston’s lakes, visit neighborhood shops, or head to Reston Town Center for restaurants, retail, events, and entertainment.
The community’s housing is equally varied. Condominiums, townhomes, apartments, and single-family homes provide options across different stages of life, while mature landscaping gives many areas a more established feel than their age might suggest.
Reston also benefits from the Silver Line, which provides direct Metro access toward Washington, D.C., and Dulles International Airport. Its combination of green space, thoughtful planning, transportation, and amenities makes Reston particularly attractive to buyers who want convenience without sacrificing an active outdoor lifestyle.
64,503 people live in Reston, where the median age is 40.6 and the average individual income is $79,709. Data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.
