The under 40 crowd mostly probably rents in DC/VA/NW or owns in MD (MoCo or PG) or NE

All over the place. Colleagues of mine live in all parts of Fairfax, Falls Church City, Arlington (N and S), Alexandria, Vienna, Prince William County, Bowie, Annapolis, Easton, Crofton, Upper Marlboro, DC. Really depends on what your key factors are - ability to walk to things (restaurants, shops), good schools, large lot or house. We're closer in, smaller SFH, good schools, walkability. And I have to disagree with the poster who said under-40s rent in the region or own in MD. Most that I know own in NOVA. My over-40 friends own in MD, and I don't know any dual-income feds over the age of 28 or so who rent.

Is this a joke?

Anyway, a lot of us live in condos in central neighborhoods with our school age kids. Many more live in the 'burbs because Federal servants are a large and diverse group with no shortage of both hicks at heart and irrational elbow room addicts who can't purchase it anywhere near civilization on their modest incomes.

Gee . . . what words come to mind when I read your post . . . condescending? arrogant? unpleasant? prejudiced? narrow-minded? Actually, all of them! Hope you're not representative of your neighborhood!

No, I'm not. My neighbors probably wouldn't say it... they'd just think it silently.

But they have also spent their limited resources on location over excess space.
