[quote=Anonymous]Just bought a house in North Arlington. We looked at school quality, teardown activity, and the types of cars people drive. I wanted a neighborhood where our house would not be the largest or smallest, where we would not be the richest or poorest. We wanted a neighborhood where people seemed to drive the same type of cars we do (not luxury models), because we felt that indicated that we might have similar incomes and views of what material things were important. I would love to have a more diverse neighborhood - but I'm not going to sacrifice school quality to do so. As many have pointed out in Arlington, it's not really a matter of choosing between Great Schools elementary schools rated 7 instead of 9. It's 9 or 3. There isn't much of a gradient. That said, we did choose one of the more diverse of the highly rated elementary schools. [/quote]
