Huntington is a census-designated place (CDP) in Fairfax County, Virginia, United States.
In June 2006, the lower-lying northern section was ravaged by floods due to a torrential rainstorm that sent adjoining Cameron Run over its banks.
Nevertheless, it remains popular with first-time home buyers due largely to its proximity to the Huntington Metro station, the southern terminus of Metrorail's Yellow Line.
[4] It is bordered to the north by the city of Alexandria, to the southeast by Belle Haven, and to the west by Rose Hill.
U.S. Route 1 forms the border between Huntington and Belle Haven, and the boundary with Rose Hill is drawn to follow Poag Street, Shaffer Drive, Florence Lane, and Telegraph Road.
