Fort Belvoir balances the energy of an active Army installation with easy living along the Potomac River. Commuters appreciate direct access to Route 1 and the Fairfax County Parkway, putting Alexandria, Springfield, Lorton, and Mount Vernon within a short drive, and broader amenities across Fairfax County at your fingertips.
Weekends rarely stay idle. The acclaimed National Museum of the United States Army is right on post, offering interactive exhibits and rotating programs that appeal to all ages. History buffs can trace the river south to George Washington’s Mount Vernon, while outdoor lovers paddle at Pohick Bay, wander the Accotink Bay Wildlife Refuge, or spot herons at Huntley Meadows Park. Nearby community hubs—from the Workhouse Arts Center’s galleries to dining around Springfield Town Center—keep calendars full without crossing the Beltway.
Families value the strong educational network. Fort Belvoir is served by Fairfax County Public Schools, including Fort Belvoir Primary and Upper schools, with robust counseling, extracurriculars, and military-family support. On-base services, neighborhood playgrounds, and year-round recreation make day‑to‑day life convenient and connected.
