[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread has deteriorated from legit to a typical DCUM snob thread.  Gary, Indiana?  Yes, depressing by any measure.  A few other listed cities?  Ditto.  But Asheville, NC?  Etc?  Get real.  Many of the cities listed here as "depressing" have large sections that are less "depressing" than the suburban sprawl that many of you are living in right now, I'm sure.  I'd stick a fork in my eye before living in Fairfax or Montgomery counties. 
 Y'all think you're so damned special.[/quote]
omg u r soooo kewl. [/quote]

I mean, it's true.  We have a second home about 75 miles outside of DC, and every time I drive through the DC suburbs going back and forth I get depressed.  I could never, ever live in any of them.  None is appealing in the least.  None.   [/quote]

Yeah, I’m sure wherever you live is paradise in comparison. There’s a reason you didn’t share your superior place of residence - people in glass houses and all that. [/quote]

I live in DC.  Second home is in the country.  It's absolutely superior to the soul less DC suburbs.  Many places are, in fact.  It's not that hard to be superior to the DC suburbs.[/quote]

Nationwide house prices and school rankings say otherwise my friend[/quote]

I knew you'd start talking about schools.   Schools have nothing to do with visiting or driving through a town you don't live in and finding it depressing.  Also, somebody said San Francisco is depressing.  Its home prices make the DC suburbs look like trailer parks.[/quote]
