[quote=Anonymous]Anything that zones to Langley, McLean, George Mason, Marshall, or Yorktown will satisfy most school snobs. Not sure why W-L gets plaudits here while Wakefield is generally shunned. The demographics aren't terribly different, there's more difference between Yorktown and Yorktown: 7 on GS, 14% poors, 67% White, 14% Hispanic, 11% Asian, 8% Black W-L: 5 on GS, 30% poors, 42% White, 33% Hispanic, 14% Black, 12% Asian Wakefield: 4 on GS, 41% poors, 47% Hispanic, 25% Black, 16% White, 11% Asian TC Williams: 4 on GS (*), 39% poors, 44% Black, 27% Hispanic, 21% White, 7% Asian W-L, Annandale, Stuart, Falls Church, Wakefield, and TC Williams are for the more urban pioneering among us. You do run the risk of living near stereotypes of urban poverty, but if you get a nice immediate neighborhood, you -- and your kids -- can really thrive. I think Madison and Woodson have some tiny sliver inside the Beltway. They meet with school snob approval, though. [/quote]
