Built around a planned residential development in Prince William County, Dale City grew into a major suburban community of Northern Virginia. Set in rolling Piedmont terrain between the Potomac and Occoquan rivers, it forms part of the Washington metropolitan area. The community took shape under developer Cecil D. Hylton in the early 1960s, during a period of rapid suburban growth in this part of Virginia. Residential neighbourhoods, schools, parks and local services shape everyday life, with Washington’s wider cultural and economic scene within the region.
