Former farmland is now known as Data Center Alley
About 35 miles west of Washington, D.C., Ashburn was once known as a farming community. But when the first Internet Exchange Point was established in Loudoun County in the 1990s, the accompanying rapid development eventually earned the suburb its nickname, Data Center Alley. Today, around 250 data centers are located here, and it's these employers that have attracted Ashburn’s 45,000 residents. “Most people move here to work here,” says Magdalena Anders, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Dulles, who has sold several homes in the area. “People in D.C. actually commute to Ashburn pretty often because of how many important companies and offices are here.” Commuters can travel via the Ashburn Metro Station, which is the last stop on the Silver Line. Anders adds that the community isn’t totally defined by corporate culture. “It’s also a popular place for families because it’s in a great school district, and there are some really great shopping centers.” Locals enjoy a location within the highly rated Loudoun County Public Schools district and have easy access to regional shopping centers, like the Leesburg Premium Outlets and Tysons Corner Center.

Access to the Metro’s Silver Line, and Dulles International Airport is nearby
“If people need to commute to D.C., they’re taking the Metro nine times out of 10,” Anders says. “And most people will walk or bike to a station if they can.” The Ashburn Metro station and the Loudoun Gateway Metro station connect to the Silver Line, which reaches downtown D.C. in a little over an hour. Park-and-ride lots in the area offer Loudoun County bus routes to the Metro stations and shuttles directly to D.C. A 35-mile drive east on Virginia state Route 267 or Virginia state Route 7 leads to downtown D.C. Depending on traffic, the drive can take one to two hours.
Inova Loudoun Hospital is on Riverside Parkway, and Dulles International Airport is less than 10 miles east. Ashburn is within Loudoun County’s Airport Impact Overlay District, meaning flight paths pass over the area, and plane noise can often be heard. But Anders says this doesn’t bother most residents. “When you live here long enough, the plane noise is almost unnoticeable. It just becomes background noise.”
