[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools aren't as prestigious as the rest of FFX county, and it's a hike to any of the privates. It's also a hike into downtown, with a slowdown through Old Town, and poor transit availability. It's very quiet down there, though, and people who live there seem to love it. [/quote] Yes, the closest metro is Huntington - it's not an area for people who are daily metro riders. (We pretty much never use it.) But it's not a hike into downtown - all of 20-25 minutes up the parkway or 295. You'll usually hear people complain about "rt 1 corridor" and "not as prestigious schools" which is their attempt to tell you without telling you there are a lot more people of color around, especially Latino. We love it down here though and yeah, don't need it to get even more expensive.[/quote] It is definitely NOT 20-25 minutes downtown during rush hour. We sold our house in Hollis Hills b/c the commute was killing us — it was taking us 45 minutes plus (sometimes close to an hour) to get to our offices downtown. [/quote] Mmmmmkay, I just drove to a meeting in Chinatown this AM and it took 30 minutes. Reliably 25 to the hill in the morning. [/quote]
