[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here -thanks for the info, and keep it coming!  One question that I'd love to hear your thoughts on:  Right now, we live in an apartment in NWDC, which we love but have outgrown.  We'll never afford to buy a home in our current neighborhood.  Our options are to move out to someplace like Fairfax or Rockville, or even further, like Annapolis.  I look at moving to Annapolis as moving *away* from DC.  Yes, we would still be close, and would commute in twice a week for work, but we would relocating - new schools, doctors, restaurants, friends, new everything.  In my mind, that isn't as true of a move out to NOVA or MOCO, but...isn't it?  If we moved to Reston or Rockville or someplace considered part of the DMV, wouldn't it still feel like moving away?  I think, because we have a lot of friends here, if we were to move to Rockville, we would still see our DC friends a lot.  Am I kidding myself on that?[/quote]

One of the PPs here.  Outside of rush hour it is an easy drive in.   DW and I frequently Uber in for Caps/Nats games for work events (and I know more season ticket holders here than I did n DC).   We drive or Uber in for dinner frequently.  Making friends won't be hard.   We kept most of our old doctors and still see them.  We aren't going to the dr every week really isn't a big deal. There are a bunch of great urgent care facilities in and around Annapolis. As far as schools, do you plan on going private or public?  What type of house do you want, budget?    Why not rent an apartment or condo at Annapolis Towne Centre and try it out for a year?  You can walk to 3 grocery stores in less than 5 min and there is a Target there, makes thing convenient while you figure out what you want to do and where you really want to be.

By the way I previously lived in Reston, and don't feel Annapolis is any more moving "away" than Reston[/quote]
