I like space, quiet, etc... But I also know I love my 20 minute commute to work (I used to commute nearly an hour each way, that was horrible!). When I move, I definitely want to go somewhere that DOESN'T have 1 MILLION people in a single county. The traffic alone... yuck. But I do like having so much stuff around me to do. The variety is great and even though everything is 20 minutes away (further if I want to head into DC), in reality 20 minutes isn't that big of a drive.
