[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So...let's recap.

Arlington: smaller houses, lots, better commute, better walking possibilities

McLean: bigger houses, lots, better schools, worse commute

I'll leave out the bigger question of diversity.  [/quote]
Many of the posts in this thread address diversity. McLean is the better option. N Arlington posters are in denial of their own bias. [/quote]

There is no obvious no single "better option" for everyone. Everyone has different preferences. Some like larger lots and privacy. Others like a more active, walkable neighborhood.

But it's a joke to say that McLean is more diverse.

Recap of public school #s (NOT including the large number of white, rich/UMC kids from McLean who attend private school): 
Langley - 62.9% white + 23.8% asian (86.7%); 2.3% economically disadvantaged; 3.6% English learners
McLean - 53.7% white + 25.5% asian (79.2%); 9% ec. dis.; 9.9% EL
Yorktown - 65.5% white + 6.9% asian (72.4%); 10.8% ec. dis.; 11.7% EL
W-L - 43.9% white + 9.7% asian (53.6%); 28.9% ec. dis.; 30.5% EL
