About the Fairfax Station, Burke, Lorton and the Fairfax County, Virginia Area 

Fairfax County has a history dating back to the early 1600s when the English first settled lands west of the Potomac River.

As public roads and railroads expanded, the county’s population and economy grew as well. Presently, Fairfax County provides modern educational, industrial, and medical facilities for its more than 1 million residents.
