A native born local resident of the Northern Virginia DC Metropolitan area. Northern Virginians are considered Northerners by everybody but themselves. They comprise a small fraction of the small fraction of the native born Virginians that live in the Northern Virginia area. They occasionally ponder the possibility of splitting away from Richmond, taking their money with them and forming a separate state. They regularly tell personal anecdotes about literal run- ins with Maryland drivers.
Billy: " Aren't you sick of being treated like crap by the suits in Richmond?"

Bob: " Yeah, I think we should keep our tax dollars right here."

Billy: " You were born in this area, weren't you?"

Bob: " Yep, Northern Virginian born and bred, baby!"
