There is comic gold in this idea...maybe an updated version of West Side Story?

"Fighting to protect their cyberturf on the mean streets of Loudoun County...two rival IT gangs, the "Bad Apples" and the "Microsofties", face off in a final dramatic showdown at an Ashburn server farm to claim the title of King of the H-1B visas..."

Now if only Leonard Bernstein were alive to compose the music for it.

The answer is a resounding yes. In mid-price (about $725k and down) brand-new developments, I would say that Indian buyers account for at least 1/3 of the sale. This is from looking at the last name of the buyers on the Loudoun County web site. I have several Indian friends and they told me that it is a custom in India to buy brand new homes.

Would not be surprised if some of them become suicidal, with all pressure from helicopter parents on crazy SAT/ACT prep since 9th grade...

I think this is what The White Album sounds like when you play it backwards.

In Ashburn? Gangs of shoppers or gangs or bored moms.

Don't kid yourselves that there are no gangs in Ashburn or anywhere else in Northern Virginia. Just a couple years ago an older couple, doing a pre-dawn morning walk, were attacked. The woman gang raped and the man was killed during a "gang initiation" in a very upscale part of Lansdowne along a very busy road.

Unfortunately, the man was retired military, had a concealed carry but did not think it was necessary to be armed that morning in their lovely neighborhood.

True but anecdotal in that these young men were out for trouble and these folks were wrong place wrong time. So horrible because of the fact it was so unusual.
