Oakton

Nestled in Fairfax County, Virginia, Oakton is a charming suburban community known for its serene ambiance, natural beauty, and proximity to urban conveniences. With its well-established neighborhoods, convenient lifestyle, and ample recreational opportunities, Oakton is a phenomenal place to call home. Don't take our word for it; Oakton made CNN Money's Best Places to Live list in 2011. As of 2020 the population of Oakton was 36,468 people. 

For everyday conveniences and entertainment, Oakton's convenient location is a winner. The nearby Fair Oaks Mall and Tysons Corner Center offer a plethora of retail options, ranging from high-end boutiques to popular chain stores. Additionally, just a short drive will take you to the heart of The Town of Vienna. The Town of Vienna is truly a walkable community with many activities and retail businesses in one area. Step back into simpler times on Historic Church Street with its many family-run shops that are unique to Vienna and street festivals throughout the year. Some annual events in Vienna are Chillin on ChurchViva Vienna!, July 4thHalloween Parade, and Kids on the Green, to name a few! 

The gem of Oakton is Oak Marr Recreation Center. From classes to pools to golf, Oak Marr has it all! If you want to get more movement in your day, check out their fitness classes, great gym, or personal training. Check out their pools and aquatic fitness classes if you love to swim. Need an activity for the kids? Oak Marr has camps and activities made for kids! Don't forget to check out the Oak Marr Farmers Market. They run Wednesday-Sunday from May 4th-November 9th.
