[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My job is bringing me to the area for 18 months.  I have an 8yo and a 12yo son and daughter.  We've been looking for houses/apartments to rent in the area, mainly focusing in Vienna and Falls Church because of the school systems.  I haven't looked into Maryland yet.  In doing my due diligence, I've found this forum.  Any suggestions on where to look, school system-wise in Maryland?  Because my wife is expecting number three, I'm looking for something within walking distance of the metro (job takes me downtown DC). Our budget is anywhere between $2200 and $2900.

thanks in advance![/quote]

Looking at VA is smart.  They are building public transportation (rail), have good schools, and are creating new HOV lanes for travel.  Montgomery County schools are mediocre and worsening, taxes are going up, unions are trying to get taxing authority through their surrogate Board of Education and downhill seems to be the operative word.  I'd pick Virginia hands down.[/quote]
