During the Cold War, Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads significantly benefited from massive defense spending. Northern Virginia, particularly around Arlington and Fairfax County, saw substantial growth due to the presence of the Pentagon and numerous defense contractors, leading to an influx of jobs and economic development. Hampton Roads, home to several military bases and the Norfolk Naval Shipyard, also experienced economic boosts from defense-related activities and infrastructure investments. These areas became vital centers for military operations and defense industries.
