[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Leaving DC is my daily day dream. Had thought we'd go to Philly to be near family, but now leaning towards Charlotte. DH and I are in finance so it has decent job prospects, nice weather, affordable everything and friendly southerners![/quote]

I am a PP from 01/25/2011 20:52. We moved to the Philly burbs. It is so...amazingly...different than DC. We can't imagine what life would still be like in DC (well, I do know, we'd be freaking out over preschools and looking into Cap Hill Day School, not to mention who knows what childcare arrangement we'd be trying to afford). Things are just so - easy here.  Drs appts are easy to get, the waits are shorter, the customer service people work harder, services are better - and the grocery store on a saturday is busy, but it won't take you 45 min to check out. And living near family is a DREAM come true![/quote]

20:41 again. We were thinking the same thing, maybe try and rent for a year or so and get settled, save some more money. My only hesitation with Philly is that the main line area isn't cheap, and I wasn't sure if we'd be happy further out. But sonds like you are, which is good to hear. Any recommendations on good Philly suburbs? Somewhere you can get a nice place for $400k?[/quote]
