[quote=Anonymous]Tell me why people (at least in dcum land) seem to prefer Arlington, McLean or Bethesda to Alexandria, other than schools. We’ve been looking and would like to be in a house with a suburban feel that’s a ten minute drive to restaurants and shops, and Old Town seems so much more charming and full of character than any of the other three, which feel so cookie cutter. Is there something I’m missing? I’m aware the public schools in Alexandria are not highly rated, is that the driving force? Old Town is so cute and there is plentiful parking and there are many nice residential neighborhoods within a ten minute drive. Bethesda is nice but really cookie cutter, and Arlington doesn’t have anything charming whatsoever, I don’t get the hype.[/quote]
