[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Found this on another thread and really agree!  We do seem to take it for granted that only a few nabes are even on the list to look at.

...there is heavy pressure on a limited number of neighborhoods because of a failure of social services in many other neighborhoods--- schools, safety, tranportation. If efficient public transportion(metro, trolleys) was ubiquitous, quality schools common, and violent crime less, buyers would have an exponentially larger pool of houses to choose from. Prices would be more affordable. The population attempting to buy into the modest-sized neighborhoods of Arlington, Del Ray, Upper NW, CCDC, Bethesda, etc., far exceeds what these neighborhoods can absorb. Frustrated buyers would do well to work for better schools, transportation and safety across the region to see their prospects improve, and to share the wealth with all our neighbors.[/quote]

same with us out in falls church , demand exceeds supply. Eventually buyers may venture out to poorer quality neighborhoods  in 22042 ,22041, 22044 and gentrify.[/quote]
