[quote=Anonymous]We don’t have a car. For us, we prefer walking/metro/bus, we live in a dense neighborhood in DC that’s pretty centrally located, and a car would just be a headache (parking, repairs, blah blah). We have two kids and a third on the way. I know you must get better at it if you do it all the time, but when we’re on vacation and have a rental car, getting the kids in and out of car seats and packing everything up is such a PITA. And sometimes you’re still bringing a stroller for your destination. So you’re packing everything up, carrying it out to the car with the kids and the stroller, loading it all up, getting to your destination, unfolding the stroller, moving everything from car to stroller, unloading and reloading the kids… what a hassle! Our stroller is parked right by our back door. Throw in what you need, grab the kids, and you’re off! Also we could definitely afford a car (HHI $225k) but we choose instead to stretch our budget to buy the perfect house that we love, plus we have used nannies/nanny shares. We couldn’t do all that and afford a car. [/quote]
