Tips for Moving to Stafford, VA

Stafford and the surrounding areas (Spotsylvania, Fredericksburg, King George County, Washington, D.C., Caroline County and Culpeper) are rooted in history and growing with new businesses, restaurants and housing developments all the time.

Within proximity to the Rappahannock River, you can easily enjoy fishing, boating and plenty of water sports. There are several local businesses where you can rent a kayak, paddleboard or canoe if you want to enjoy life on the water.

It’s often a dilemma deciding where to shop and eat thanks to all the stores, restaurants and breweries popping up all the time. And for a weekend getaway, both Richmond and Washington, D.C. are just a 2- to 3-hour drive from Stafford to enjoy the mountains or beach.

Before purchasing a home in the Stafford area, do your research and if possible visit the surrounding counties for schools and traffic patterns. Stafford is a commuter hub and the D.C. to Stafford stretch of I-95 is known for having the worst traffic during rush hour.

Getting Acclimated to Stafford

Neighboring Stafford is the quaint and historic city of Fredericksburg. Popular tourist sites here include the Fredericksburg Battlefield and the childhood home of George Washington, Ferry Farm. Downtown Fredericksburg is located along the Rappahannock River and is home to Mary Washington University’s main campus, historic museums, sites and more.

To get acclimated to the Stafford area, we recommend you explore all downtown Fredericksburg has to offer. A few local favorites include:

• Carl’s Ice Cream – A small, local custard stand that has been around for decades.
• Foode – the chef was on Bravo TV’s Top Chef!
