Does having a WFH job make finding housing harder in this area?

I have heard that some people find roommates who WFH less desirable since they are home 24/7, and of course you also need to find a place with a bedroom big enough for a desk and computer monitor. There is a strong possibility I'd move if I work from home, but may stay in nova for a year or two due to the possibility of going to NVCC before moving to a larger city that's less sprawly.

Those that WFH or have a hybrid schedule, do you have more difficulty moving or finding roommates?

Are there farms nearby where you can pick your own corn?

I see a lot of fruit and vegetable picking farms but not one that’s mentioned picking corn. I remember running through corn fields in Texas and picking corn that were super sweet. Just want to do that again…

Suggestions for halfway decent nursing homes in Loudoun / Fairfax / Arlington that accept Medicaid?

It’s getting to be that time in life - always difficult when you can start to see that a parent may need the care of a nursing home in the no-too-distant future.

Nursing homes, themselves, are hard to guess how good they are going to be. And their websites are typically no help in terms of the cost - they want you to come in and talk to them. So I figured maybe I would ask here if anyone has had experience in this specific set of circumstances, and found a home that was reasonably nice and takes Medicaid. I know Medicaid-funded facilities aren’t always the nicest… but we’re at where we’re at, there’s no way my spouse and I can afford $8-10k out-of-pocket for nursing home care for each of our parents.

What’s going in to the old Dogfish Head restaurant location in Seven Corners?

That building has been vacant since Dogfish moved out a few years ago. Now construction is well underway. Do you know what’s going in?
