The rezoning of Courthouse and Rosslyn to Yorktown, and Columbia Heights/Barcroft to W-L during the last boundary changes was for socio-economic reasons, and to relieve overcrowding at Wakefield. School Boards do not redistrict to protect or boost property values.

In North Arlington, property value differences between Yorktown and W-L neighborhoods are negligible, and the real estate ads promote each school district about equally. Families are attached to their neighborhoods schools however, and any changes among the three high schools will cause some controversy. Especially if the pricey neighborhoods north of 50 become redistricted to Wakefield from W-L. South of route 50, similar houses go for less, in part because of the schools they are zoned to.

Of course not. School Boards would never do that.

In Arlington that hasn't been the case. The last secondary school boundary change was a reshuffling of poor neighborhoods. In two year's we'll see if the Route 50 boundary line is preserved or not.

Arlington hasn't had to make tough choices for a while, other than whether to close schools, because the schools had been under-enrolled. That's going to change soon.

Sounds like everything will be the same for the next two years. There are words that they are voting on bondary changes in February. Is it true?

Ok... So do a Redfin search. North Arlington is universally expensive. Some neighborhoods like Lyon Village and Country Club Hills form the upper end of the market.

Do you have anything of substance to contribute? What is your agenda?
