We are relocating to the Fredericksburg area. Currently in Amarillo TX. I would like to know about the area and schools around there. Can anybody share their opinions on where to rent an apartment, buy a house, public and private schools. Anything would be most appreciative. My daughter is in kindergarten currently. Thanks in advance

Welcome, Barbie! I will leave those that live in and around the 'Burg to answer your questions. I grew up in southern Stafford, but it was a long time ago!

The first thing you need to know about the area is the traffic from Fredericksburg to anywhere can be brutal during rush hours and on the weekend. Choose access to work very carefully. Schools are pretty good, but I will defer because my youngest is 32.

Welcome to the area,,,,I was a transplant too, but back in the early 90's. We didn't know anyone. My job brought us here.
we rented a nice townhouse for 2 yeas close to Fredburg in Spotsytucky Co... (off rt 208). We liked that area and bought our first house around the corner from our town house.
That being ssid, I concur with Larry, ,,where are your jobs  Traffic sux if you don't know about rush hours. I worked in Woodbridge...32 miles from my home... it would take me a little over 1 hr to get there, or 8 hrs...you never know..
I think our whole area would be a nice place to live and raise kids...All have good schools and good shopping and public services. It will all be up to what you want.
Good luck and welcome to our disfunction! !!!  Ps... I see you used a self portrait for you picture....I did too....

My SIL's kids attend Winding Creek Elementary School in Stafford . She and her kids love it. She works with special needs kids there. She seems to enjoy her job and her co-workers.
