[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It ranges anywhere from average to mediocre. Price will be a clue which is which but I would say the people who pay for the top end of silver spring are over paying and could get much better once they get into the 800k and 900k. the people in the bottom range are most likely getting a decent deal for what they are paying for as they most likely had low expectations anyway. Basically for poor people it is great as there is just enough middle class to get some decent stores and amenities but the opposite for the middle class that settel there as they have to put up with far more poverty and problems than the typical middle and upper class suburbs. The schools tend go down hill quick when not linked to one of the few better neighborhoods[/quote] This guy/girl always shows up...ignore them. We LOVE Silver Spring, but as other posters have noted, it is very variable. We have a decent HHI (300k) and could easily live in Bethesda, and choose SS because the community cohesion and culture is great. Our schools are very good--20910--but we just passed up a beautiful home (we are looking for something larger) because a few miles out the schools get REALLY variable. Check out the MD schools forum here--lots of info on SS schools[/quote]
