[quote=Anonymous]is it worth it to you and your husband to have coffee and edgy non-chain retail and a nyc-ish feel in your 'hood, if the trade off is a commute that is often an hour or an hour +, crawling on highways? If so, Mt. Pleasant, Bloomingdale, or other similar areas will work for you. If not, try Takoma Park (easy access to 495 and Georgia) or consider trading off and living in an AWESOME house that is in the suburbs, closer to Columbia. I think the answers here vary so widely because the answer is that the things you want aren't really possible. You're going to have to give one up: Nyc-feel, ok commute, or proximity to city. For what it's worth, I live in Takoma Park and it can take 15-20 minutes just to get thru lights to the beltway, so yeah, it's a reverse commute, but it's still a bad commute. [/quote]
