Gum Springs, located between Huntington and Fort Belvoir, is a residential and historic Hybla Valley neighborhood with a wooded edge and a Route 1 corridor. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Richmond Highway (US-1) near Lockheed Boulevard, where auto shops, small eateries, and everyday services line the strip. Community touchstones include Gum Springs Community Center, the Gum Springs Museum, and the Gum Springs Library. Side streets feature mid-century ramblers, brick colonials, and newer infill set among mature trees. Huntley Meadows Park adds boardwalk trails and wetlands scenery close to home. The setting balances suburban blocks with a distinctly local, long-rooted identity.
