[quote=Anonymous]We are in the Seminary Valley neighborhood, SFH. The worst crime in our immediate neighborhood are people who like to run the stop sign. We checked our several years of police reports in the area, and the worst thing was cars being broken into, which isn't surprising since there's a lot of street parking. We are accessible to the Holmes Run Trail, which allows you to walk to Harris Teeter, Chipotle, and Ben Brenman Park. We like it a lot. People who don't live in our neighborhood say the schools are "horrible," but anecdotally, our neighbors who have children there (and there are quite a few) are happy. Yes, there are a lot of immigrant families in the area. Yes, many of their children are FARMS, and some are ESL. That alone isn't enough to make me unhappy about a school...quite the contraty. We feed into Polk ES, although families closer to Foxchase I think feed into Patrick Henry. I don't know anyone who sends their kids there, since we have a toddler.

If you're renting and don't mind moving later on, it really shouldn't matter that much how the schools are. Landmark area is (supposedly, fingers crossed) being redeveloped, so it will be interesting to see how that plays out. I am not familiar with the S. Van Dorn area except for the strip mall north of Edsall! But I like where we live a lot.[/quote]
