[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a fairly unique ask. I lived here from NYC too and it just isn’t a thing in the same way.

There are some solidly middle class buildings in Chevy Chase DC with kids, but they are not really upscale buildings, with an exception or two — the new one at military for instance. But it is a very nice area.

Also, Cathedrals heights near St. Albans/NCS has some good options. Neat neighborhood but no metro alas.

There are plenty of newish upscale building in Bethesda, but they are geared more toward singles and childless couples.  At the same time, there is a lot more teenager stuff to do in downtown Bethesda. Shops, people watching, food.

Friendship (on the Maryland side)  is like the oldest zip code in the USA. And there is less teenage energy around Mazza then there was a few decades ago sadly.

As pp said, you will unfortunately likely spend a lot of time explaining why you chose apartment living. But no big deal if you don’t mind [/quote]
Thank you. I used to live in DC and I figured this would be an odd ask. Thing is, we are gone a lot and we’ve already done the suburban house and yard thing. Then we lived overseas and now in the city and we are used to being able to walk everywhere and take public transit. Don’t want to be tethered to a car and a big house and yard and people to take care of them. Will look at downtown Bethesda more this weekend, thanks. [/quote]
