Located just 15 miles outside of Washington, DC, Mantua is one of the region's more expensive neighborhoods and home to some of the nation's most highly educated and affluent citizens. The median resident age here is 44 years, and the medium household income is close to $100,000. The average home sells for about $533,000.

Local students enrolled in K-12 attend prestigious schools within the Fairfax County Public School System. A favorable teacher to student ratio and small classroom size here produce students who are among the best performers on national standardized tests, and who go on the college after graduating from high school. Higher education is easily accessible at the nearby George Mason University, Georgetown University, George Washington University, or University of Maryland.
Mantua's 7,500 residents enjoy a host of community activities. There is an active Citizens' Association that hosts events for kids and parents year around.
