[quote=Anonymous]Where you live is where you live, which sometimes is a decision made in advance of making a school choice (if you go the private route). And some people dont want to live in DC, with the high cost of living, rats, parking issues, etc. Also, living in MoCo, for example, also offers the "back up" plan of public school in case things in the DC private dont work out, or you get sick of paying in excess of $30K for private. We looked at homes in AU park in DC and found that for the price, we did not feel it was worth it. We live a few miles up the road in Silver Spring and get way more house for the money, and deal with our 30 minute commute to and from home/work/school. And our neighbhorhood is family friendly and all that we want for our kids in a community. [/quote]
