DH & I are newbies to the DMV area.  We don't have children yet but planning on starting a family soon and who knows what will happen.  We liked certain areas of NW DC and then Chevy Chase but would also consider Virginia.  We know no one but some random work people in DC and I'm very wary of insular, old established, old money neighborhoods where if you have no connection, it's kind of weird if you are there.  I don't care about the MD versus VA debate, we'd live in either- I just don't want to be on a street where every other person inherited their homes from their great Aunt Elda and they all have clear, established networks.
Should we steer clear of NW DC or Chevy Chase? Parts of it gave me that feel.

We lived on the Philadelphia main line a few years back and it was lovely but extremely difficult to be someone who wasn't from there and didn't have roots. Being new to an area and making friends as an adult is hard enough and I don't want to repeat that experience.  
Would love to hear your feedback purely on neighborhoods and people's experience moving there as a total newcomer.  TIA![/quote]
