[quote=Anonymous]I'm an "academic" living in TkPk and my spouse is a "striver." We have a 10 yo. Here's my take: Takoma Park is the most diverse community we've lived in, with regard to ethnic diversity, lifestyle diversity, and to a lesser extend socioeconomic diversity. It is different than Rockville because it's "hipper" and more walkable and smaller -- if you stick in the community to go out your day you will see the same people over and over and over. You will find people all kinds: lawyers, professors, taxi drivers, contractors, writers, stay at home moms and dads, old parents, young parents, some childless couples, old and young people, public/private/home schoolers, people who go the farmer's market every Sunday and people who shop at Aldi, etc... No one will bat an eye at your lifestyle, whatever it is, because they will have seen it or something like it before -- unless you are a Republican! Ww have even noticed some religious families, which was unexpected but NBD, there is a good contingent of that too. There is some stratification between richer and poorer, even with kids in school, and that is my only substantive complaint. [/quote]
