Biohazard and Crime Scene Remediation in Pimmit Hills, VA

Pimmit Hills is a census-designated place in Fairfax County, Virginia, that is in practical terms a single large neighborhood within a densely populated urban area rather than a traditional town.

The name Pimmit Hills derives from Pimmit Run, the local stream that was itself named for John Pimmit.

The area was farmland until developer George Offutt began building the Pimmit Hills subdivision in 1950, starting with the first 500 houses, completed as the first two sections by 1954.

Most Pimmit Hills houses were built during the 1950s for World War II and Korean War veterans and their families, as modest three-bedroom, one-bath homes of about 833 square feet that initially sold for $9,950.

The subdivision was fully built out by 1957–58, with 1,675 homes on 663 acres.

Although Pimmit Hills is governed by Fairfax County, its addresses use Falls Church as the mailing address.

Pimmit Hills had 6,569 residents in the 2020 census, up from 6,094 in 2010.

The CDP covers about 1.5 square miles, all of it land.

Pimmit Hills children attend Fairfax County public schools including Westgate Elementary and Lemon Road Elementary, and George C. Marshall High School stands just north of the neighborhood on Leesburg Pike.

Since the mid-2010s the neighborhood has been transformed by teardown redevelopment, with many original 1950s ramblers replaced by much larger new houses, some approaching $2 million.
