[quote=Anonymous]One advantage to DC, especially EOTP DC, is free pre-K for your younger kid. This saved us a lot of money in the last two years as our older child was in K-1st and our younger was in PK-3 and 4. We live near Union Station. If you were willing to rent or live in a condo, you could be in-bounds for Ludlow-Taylor or Maury and be able to send your kids to school for free and pay only for aftercare. There are 2-bedrooms to be had in the neighborhood for a little over 2k/month. We bought in this neighborhood when we made right around 100k. It was a struggle to pay for childcare on that income (we both work full-time) but it eased up considerably once the kids started school. And now we've both gotten significant raises, making life easier. And you really can't beat this neighborhood for child-friendliness. So many kids, so much to do.[/quote]
