[quote=Anonymous]Burke here, it's a great neighborhood with excellent schools (I'm partial to Burke Centre, only because I live there). But you have to consider your quality-of-life if you're having to commute into Maryland each day. I commute into DC, but my location is transit-friendly and I can get there within 30-45 by slugging, bus, VRE, etc. If you're driving into Maryland each day, that commute could wear down on you. Fast. Soon enough your child (children, eventually) will be in school, and you'll want to have greater flexibility. If you can telework often-enough, that's a good balance. Otherwise, I'd be hesitant to live in Burke but commute each day to Maryland. But I could be wrong, it'd be interesting to hear from others here that do make the commute each day. FWIW overall, though, I love Burke. It's very family-friendly, the neighborhood is great with so many amenities, and the schools are fantastic. Good luck to you![/quote]
