[quote=Anonymous]What would you rent in Woodley Park - would you need 3BR or more? I suspect rents in Woodley would be so much higher than a mortgage in Petworth...I guess it depends what you find. I think a lot depends on what ages your kids are. I think Powell will be changing a lot and many more high SES parents over time will stay, but the experience will be drastically different depending on the ages of your kids. My sense if your kids are in preschool Powell is a great option but beyond about second grade it may not be where you want it to be.l You also have another option you don't mention, of trying to get into an immersion or dual language charter school. Just FYI - I live in Petworth and the demographic changes are huge...my block has a 12 year old, a 5 year old, three 1 year olds, and 4 infants. There's quite a baby boom going on, and most of the births are to newcomers to the neighborhood (when I moved to Petworth in 2005 my block was mostly elderly people).[/quote]
