[quote=Anonymous]I live on the Arlington / FCC border and my kids went to preschool and camp in FCC from 2017-2022. My impression of FCC - at least the parts along Columbia Ave and close to the main drag of Broad St. and/or Cherry Hill park - is similar to my husband’s hometown of Summit, NJ. There are a lot of rich people who don’t realize or like to pretend they are not rich. People are friendly and seem welcoming and mostly down to earth - but not in an artsy / hippie way - but also not in a Midwestern way - it’s hard to describe. Some of the newer houses are large and very expensive, others are older and more modest - but still expensive. If I had to stereotype, it’s a lot of SES / not quite C-level execs who like to wear Lands End and cosplay living in Mayberry while still having all the amenities of their Whole Foods lifestyle. Overall I feel like people on my side of the border Arlington of similar means are more open about their wealth and consumption. Perhaps it’s something about the “Little City” that people want to fit in / conform because you see the same people everywhere you go for school, sports, camp, etc. at least in the preschool and elementary years. There is only one elementary, middle school, and HS - so if your family or kids are jerks, it could get lonely. [/quote]
