[quote=Anonymous]Do you regret it or are you happy? We are thinking about making the move for jobs and for a better cost of living. We have two small kids here in DC (Arlington) but feel like, even though we make good salaries, it will never be enough financially to get what we want in this area. It seems that you need to make $300k at least to live comfortably as we'd like (house in a safe neighborhood in the city or Bethesda/N Arlington, walkable, not totally in need of major renovations). We feel like living here will mean we continue to scrape by and don't have extra money to take family vacations, pay for enrichment for our kids, etc. Baltimore is appealing because of the job offer and also for the lower cost of living. It seems one can live in a pretty area such as Roland Hill in the city, but real estate is much cheaper. I think we could even afford private elementary school there, which we could never do here in the DC area.

Anyway, does anyone have thoughts, particularly those that have made a similar move?[/quote]
