McLean sucks. Great Falls. If money is no object, you want space, and you will have it.

McLean has to many looky loo losers who have a problem with not being able to afford the new houses, and acting out like small children about it. Though, that might just be their tiny penises talking.

McLean is a much better investment than Great Falls.

I agree that McLean is better investment than Great Falls. McLean is closer-in, most are inside the beltway with access to metro stops and buses. McLean is on public sewer, while the majority of Great Falls are on septic tanks.

Did they change the definition of bucolic or something? What in the world?

septic tanks = bucolic

2 and 5 acre lots = bucolic.

No matter what it actually means, bucolic sounds like you are talking about some major personal and embarrassing digestive issue that shouldn't be discussed in public.

Yeah, I don't know if there are many of the closer in areas that could possibly be considered "bucolic." I think the closest you can get to city with that description is possibly parts of MD in Charles or Calvert Counties (possibly extreme southern PG?).

There are some farther out areas in Montgomery County getting close to Frederick that might fit that, and then possibly areas of say Clifton in Fairfax?

I think if you want land and quiet, there has got to be a trade off somewhere. Closer in areas are completely built up and not at all the definition of bucolic. I have been to some houses in the Langley area - sure there is some land and nice homes, but the traffic snarl you have to go through to get to them would kill the bucolic feel for me. Too close to the big highways.

The references to septic systems probably don't help.

I was out in Calvert County a week or two ago for work, and couldn't get over how much I felt like I was out in the country. It was so nice.

Not that this is relevant to looking for someplace bucolic, especially, but I stopped for dinner at this little diner on my way back, where it was about $3 for a grilled cheese, and the owner of the restaurant gave me some free lasagne, too - they were testing it out for their summer menu. It just all felt so friendly and relaxed, and easy. Plus pretty.

Don't know I'd live there if commute weren't an issue - I'm not sure I'd stay in the DMV at all if I didn't work in DC - but I sure did like it.

Agree with Spring Valley. But I wouldn't live there either. Next would be the Village of Chevy Chase.

+1000-- "DMV" is a stupid name, and it's already been taken by Departments of Motor Vehicles everywhere.

Also, it places the District first but suggests that "M" and "V" are of equal significance. Bullshit.

Third, I understand there's a previous-generation GoGo association that's part of this, too, and... well... there's a place for commemorating the relevant moment in time, but we're only talking about a few decades in the second half of the 20th century. That's not my city, and frankly, I think the pre-1950 city was far more interesting.

What are you talking about??

Who the frack calls McLean "bucolic"??!!

[Anonymous]

Bucolic - Middleburg, Upperville, Paris VA.

But if I could live anywhere in DC it would be on one of the original streets in CCDC.
