[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For 40+ years people have beaten up on PG County and for the same length of time complained that “there are no affordable housing options”.

There are, you just don’t want to live near black people or be tarnished with the PG county designation.

I’ll never be able to hear the whines of a white person complaining about housing costs who doesn’t even acknowledge PG county exists.[/quote]
I’m have a white family and we lived in Bowie for about seven years. The schools sucked and the city management was terrible. Moved to Moco and the schools became terrible and country management also terrible in our time there (schools went downhill around COVID). What stands out for me why we couldn’t stay in Bowie was that everyone just seemed miserable. Went to the grocery store and every employee looked miserable and was rude. Maybe the person who responded with “we don’t want to live around poor people” is right. It just had this pervasive unhappiness, and while Moco isn’t perfect either (we’ve since moved out of state) it was less miserable. [/quote]

We've had the opposite experience. From DC to Bowie was like turning on a light. People are friendly, happy, and happy to help. I've never met a miserable store employee out here (although i  don't frequent walmart, can't speak to that). My neighbors, the kids' sports teams, etc, all wonderful. Happy to be without the frequent gun shots we had in DC. [/quote]
I'm sure it's all relative.  We never lived in DC so it may be an improvement from that. But I will stand by my comments that service in restaurants/stores in Bowie was pretty abysmal.  Bowie Town Center? Surely you can't with a straight face say the employees and service is good there? I used to shop at the Giant in Lanham and it also stood out as being particular miserable, but it's been a few years.[/quote]
