The Whitman zone is mostly car-dependent, with single family homes on large lots. Kids will drive or get picked up to go anywhere.

It sounds like the areas zoned for BCC, Walter Johnson or, in DC itself, Jackson Reed would be a better fit for the lifestyle you’re seeking for your family. [/quote]

Thanks - I have given you the wrong impression, sorry, as we would like to move away from current "lifestyle". Apart from the very good table results and college destinations, one of the attractions of Whitman's area was our perception that kids would need to rely more on their parents' car and that families would naturally be more present.  BCC and WJ are very good schools but we think WW would suit our son better as a newcomer to the country.  We are a bit concerned about living in DC to be honest, hence our focus on MoCo.

I know the area very well and have a couple of friends already living in the catchment although they have younger children so not in WW yet.

Despite the misunderstanding, I think you just said what we wanted to hear!! [/quote]
