| I've heard good things about Mount Rainier, MD. It's close to DC and seems like a lot of families live here based on a few drives through the streets on the weekend during nice weather climate days. Anybody recently moved here? What's the good and bad? No sales pitches please. |

Do a search and you’ll find a lot of perspectives.
In short, tons of families moving in. Very community oriented, but definitely not a cookie cutter suburb which some people secretly want. It’s not for everyone but my family loves it here. |

| It’s great. Safe, younger families, neighbors know and talk to each other. |

It would mainly depend on where the private school is for me. Getting across the top of town on military road can be misery. But getting a lot of places from here is easy. So that and commutes would be the main things. |

| What about public schools there, great schools ratings aside? |

We feel good about elementary, comfortable with middle, but will not (as it is today) send our kid to the high school. |
