[quote=Anonymous]We live three blocks from the metro so we use it all the time to go to the movies, theater, shopping, and out to dinner and love the convenience. But if we lived half a mile or a mile from the metro, we would use it to get to work but we would probably drive to go out. That said, we also live in Capitol Hill very close to downtown so our natural inclination is to go downtown. If you live in the burbs, that might seem like to much of a schlep even if you live near metro and you might just as well want to drive. Didn't live here in the stroller days so I can't comment on that but it is very nice to live near metro as the kids get older and your kid can get around town without you driving him/her everywhere. OP, for your purposes, it sounds like you don't really need that extra convenience of the metro. But if you do decide you want it, I would either buy a house very close or not bother at all.[/quote]
