[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the question I wrestle with everyday - should we have bought in Hyattsville? Did we make the wrong call?

I think you should look at the historical data on how each neighborhood fared in the last recession. Hyattsville defintely looks poised for continued appreciation, and depending on what part honestly already has more walkable "amenities" but that PG address always worries me with regards to insulation from a future recession. I don't know if it matters because it's a different place now than it was in 2008, but that was ultimately why we decided to buy in DC. Plus free (hopefully) pre-K when we get there! [/quote]

Also, I'm the PP and don't think there's anything wrong with PG county and we frequent Hyattsville, Mount Rainier etc. frequently. We were just risk-averse buyers because we weren't sure if we would be financially poised to "stick out a recession" if we couldn't sell in Hyattsville, Mt. R. if life changed suddenly.

Just don't want to get attacked as racist for saying "PG address always worries me" because our decision was rooted firmly in risk tolerance.[/quote]
