Would this work for you? Sold last year-- so little inventory now! This is near Rogers Drive-- a few streets over.

Check out Masonville, Sleepy Hollow, or Hillwood, all in same general area.

I saw the scores - is it all of 22042? Because PPs were referring OP there. Can't recall if schools were an issue for OP.

Pimmit Hills is the closest, sh$ttiest hood with the best schools. You just have to put up with 600sq ft 3bd 1 ba

yes but they are so easy and cheap to tear down and the neighborhood has nice side walks.

People don't like the fact that it's majority minority with a lot of poor kids, so they say it's a "bad" school.

Would this work for you?

My kid's school is majority-minority, but since it is Asian, no one notices.

I live in Four Corners in SS and there are lots of very cute, remodeled capes around here. If you can deal with small one (3 bed 1 bath) you can probably find one for 400K.

If you buy in the Forest Knolls, Oakland Terrace or Flora Singer ES areas, you will have a well-regarded elementary school too, just in case you aren't ready to move when K rolls around!

If you really don't care about that, look at Woodmoor -- adorable houses, nice size lots .... $400K might be pushing it but you never know, again if you can deal with one bathroom.
