Haymarket

Haymarket is served by one residential zip code: 20169. (20168 is also associated with Haymarket, but it's a PO Box–only zip with no residential addresses.)

Founded in 1799, Haymarket earned its nickname "The Crossroads" for its position at the junction of two major roads — a role it still plays today, sitting right at the intersection of Route 15 and I-66. The town survived being burned nearly to the ground by federal troops in November 1862, and rebuilt around what's now a genuinely historic, walkable downtown along Washington Street.

Signature Neighborhoods

• Dominion Valley Country Club — a large, amenity-rich golf community with multiple pools, clubhouses, and a mix of home styles, centered around its championship golf course
• Regency at Dominion Valley — a 55+ active adult community within Dominion Valley, offering resort-style amenities and a full calendar of resident events
• Established neighborhoods throughout the surrounding area offering a mix of single-family homes and townhomes, many built to serve the town's rapid growth over the last two decades

Historic Downtown Haymarket Washington Street is the heart of Haymarket — a walkable stretch of boutique shops, restaurants, and genuinely historic buildings. The centerpiece is the Old Town Hall and School (built around 1883), now home to the Haymarket Museum, which is listed on both the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register. The museum hosts historic walking tours and local art exhibits throughout the year.

Haymarket Day, held every September, is the town's largest and longest-running community event — alongside an annual Earth Day cleanup each spring and a Health and Fitness Day that draws in local wellness businesses.

Nearby Attractions Haymarket sits close to some of Northern Virginia's best outdoor and wine-country attractions: the Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve, Silver Lake Park, The Winery at LaGrange, and The Farm Brewery at Broad Run are all just outside town — giving residents easy access to hiking, wine tasting, and open space without a long drive.

Schools Haymarket is served by Prince William County Public Schools, including Samuel L. Gravely Jr. Elementary, J.W. Alvey Elementary, Ronald Wilson Reagan Middle School, and Battlefield High School. As always, we recommend verifying exact school assignment for any specific address.
