[quote=Anonymous]We currently live in poorly performing school district in Fairfax county. The kids are 3 and a few months so we are not in a terrible rush to move but are starting to explore our possibilities and map out options for our next move. For the longest time I was set on Burke, West Springfield, Springfield VA because the schools have good results and house values are within out budget. However, recently I discovered that Bethesda, MD or even Chevy Chase (with perhaps upping the budget a bit) might be an option too, perhaps a better one. My main concern with Burke area is that it is quite far from DC and it seems a bit isolated, with many parents being quite religious and with military background (I have nothing against that of course but it is not my profile so I worry we might not fit it). I work in DC so the commute is a concern, but more so, I worry that when the kids start growing up they will be bored in the Burke. I have never lived in Maryland and don't know anything about the schools there. I am seeking views on living in Bethesda area, the public schools, overall quality of life vs. something like Burke. Thank you.[/quote]
