[quote=Anonymous]I lived in two different large detached homes in Ward 3, one two blocks from the Cleveland Park Metro, and one three blocks from the Woodley Park metro.  The second had an attached garage, and everything else you could want in a home.  For a variety of reasons that had nothing to do with money and everything to do with liveabilty, we moved to Virginia (also near the metro, so we didn't even give up that) and have never looked back.  There are more shops and restaurants within walking distance of my house than there were in either Cleveland or Woodley Park.

I work on the east side of downtown, and my commute is now around 30 min at rush hour (15-20 min off peak).  The other day, I drove from my office to a party at an embassy near the Naval Observatory, and it took over an hour to get there. There was nothing special going on, just traffic.  No thanks.

Did I mention that during the approximately ten years I lived in Ward 3, my house was burgled three times? And don't get me started on my DC government horror stories.  [/quote]
