[quote=Anonymous]Love it. Have stuck it out with teenagers in one of the tinier GP houses because we never found a neighborhood we liked more. As a clue to how family-friendly it is, many of our neighbors who have left still come back here frequently to use the playgrounds, trick-or-treat, etc. Great walkability to stores, playgrounds, Georgetown shopping, woods. Bus access is imperfect (Metro bus in general is pretty awful), but the Connector buses help. We know a TON of bike commuters, and many walk to Dupont, Foggy Bottom, etc., rather than relying on the bus system. Fewer families with older kids seem to leave now. A few more send their kids to Hardy and then Wilson or Walls than in the past. (More kids go to Wilson/Walls than to Hardy, but even that seems to be changing.) Some walk to the various private and Catholic schools nearby. Some take the bus to Latin or Basis, though there seem to be far fewer getting spots at Latin than in the past. As is the case with much of NW DC, there's little racial diversity. Lots of international diversity, however. [/quote]
