[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would likely just be for the first year. For the next school year I'd try getting her into her inbound elementary (Eaton, Hearst etc).

And I'd probably just get a 2 bedroom with her cosleeping with me. Not sure if that's a sound idea but that's what I had in mind currently. Getting a 3 bedroom does make sense and I wonder if for that reason I should go for Petworth or Brookland instead.[/quote]

Brookland is much less urban / more livable, for what it's worth.  If you pick the right spot, there's less traffic noise and way more green trees and playgrounds.  Also less general mayhem.[/quote]

OP here: Any specific part of Brookland you'd recommend? For some reason, having lived in DC before, the only image I have of Brookland is the street with the Busboys and Poets, so I can't imagine living there - there's much more to Brookland than I realize obviously.[/quote]

Well, I live across South Dakota in Riggs Park, but if I were to choose a part of Brookland to live in (and rent not buy), I would rent one of the single family homes in the areas around 12th Street / 13th Street / A little further east on either side of Michigan Avenue.  [/quote]
