[quote=Anonymous]There are neighborhoods in Bethesda (Avenel, Springer Road among them) which were built in the 80s or later, when underground power lines were the norm. However, it doesn't do much for reliability, as the feeder lines are above ground and get hit in an outage. Really you shouldn't base you decision on that though. If you find a house with above-ground lines and are worried about power outages, just get a generator. Where we live in Bethesda, pretty much all of the $1mln+ new houses come with one standard. They cost $10-20k plus a few hundred a year in maintenance.[/quote]
