Get the Fairs mug.Best county in the USA! Located in northern VA, pretty much next to DC, the second best place! Fairfax is home to over 1,000,000 people, and is considered as one of the wealthiest counties in the entire USA! There are about 500 different malls, each one larger than the next, so basically the county is a shopping mall where teens hang out. Lots of traffic here too, since we got such a high population. In Fairfax, "rush hour" is from 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM, with a slight break at 10:02 PM. Fairfax is also home to one of the country's largest school systems, with so many people from different races and places that if you walked down a hallway in any school, you instantly learn a new language. Yep, this is pretty much the best place to live in anywhere!
