[quote=Anonymous]It's important, esp. as your kids get older. The closer you are, the easier it is to arrange carpools and playdates. When they're older and they have late sports practices, rehearsals, etc., plus several hours of HW each night, the commute can be a horrible time-suck. Also, before they start driving and you still need to pick them up late on weekend nights, it's nice if they live closer to school -- where most of the kids live and hang out. Once they do start driving, it's nice if they're only driving a short distance and not on the Beltway. Finally, a note to PP -- kids still do play yard to yard in our n-hood and teens roam from house to house. In fact, the kids who live farther away come to our n-hood to do that b/c they like the freeedom. [/quote]
