[quote=Anonymous]I also live in the Kensington part zoned for Einstein and think it's a very nice neighborhood for the price, with an awesome location-- We are just behind the drive-thru Starbucks and can walk to that shopping plaza with the CVS and Donut King; we are approximately 1 mile to Wheaton Mall/metro (with Target, Costco, Giant), 1 mile to Kensington MARC and the farmer's market, Noyes Children's Library, Safeway, Car Wash Coffee (When it opens!). We are a 10-15 minute drive (without traffic, of course!) to Pike and Rose, Downtown Bethesda, and Downtown Silver Spring. We are 20-30 minutes to Dupont Circle. An Uber to 14th St is between $15-25 each way. We are approximately 35 minutes from all 3 airports. My commute to Farragut is 45 minutes driving to Grosvenor and taking the red line. If I wanted to take the bus to Medical Center and then metro in, I could do that in about an hour. Our neighborhood is safe, quiet, and well-kept. Our neighbors are friendly and look out for each other. I really do not understand all the negativity surrounding being zoned to Einstein, and you definitely cannot go wrong with any neighborhood in the 20895 Kensington zip code. It all depends on your budget. For some neighborhoods I prefer Bethesda for the commute. But if you live in Bethesda and have to drive to the metro, then you're most likely driving and parking at the Grosvenor metro anyway, and in that case, I prefer Kensington. [/quote]
