[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems people on DCUM who are mainly married couples want walkability to restaurants and bars.

Is it because they are alcoholics or drinks who can’t get in a car after going to a bar?

Are they swingers who want to bring other couples back from nearby bars and restaurants close by?

This is THE most ridiculous take I've ever seen on this website -- and believe me, there have been some doozies.

No, that's not why... walkability just makes life easier.

I'm originally from Brooklyn and moved to downtown Bethesda when my husband and I first moved down here, and it was great because I was used to walking and taking mass transit everywhere.  If I had to get in my car and drive everywhere, I would have lost my mind.

When we had our kids, it was so easy to just throw them in the stroller and take off.

Now that we're in our late 40's and our kids are in high school & college, it's nice for them to be able to walk to the grocery store, meet their friends or walk to their part time job.

Most of our neighbors are the same way.

Drinking seems like a weird hang up of YOURS... and swinging?!?  Really?!? 🤣
