[quote=Anonymous]I love living in Old Town. I mean sure, I could live elsewhere and drive here--but I like not having to drive to do something. We just walk out the door and within 10-15 minutes we can walk to the river, multiple playgrounds, 2 grocery stores, tons of restaurants (well, back when I wanted to go to restaurants), the kids' school, etc.

But yeah, the schools have their problems, though not all are equally problematic. The administration is pretty dysfunctional. But the teachers my kids have are fine and they're doing well. The scores for kids in my demographic are good. My friends with kids in FCPS and APS all complain about the same things I complain about. In fairness, we're at one of the better regarded and ranked schools in the City so YMMV if you go to a different school. And there are definitely a contingent of people who get fed up and move halfway through elementary school (though I know far more people who moved out of state than people who moved to a neighboring district).
