[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking at moving to Forest Glen from a more urban setting in close-in NoVA. Forest Glen seems to fit our work transportation needs fine for now. I like the feel of the neighborhood, but having to drive everywhere (except the metro) seems like it would be draining. In my current location I have several restaurants within close walking distance, and a convenience store within walking distance in case we are out of milk. We currently go days without using our cars. What’s the traffic like on Georgia Avenue? How aggressive are the drivers? Other feedback? How do drivers react to cyclists? Otherwise, it seems like there’s a lot of green space and like a very pleasant place to raise a family. [/quote] Georgia Avenue is hell on earth! I live 2 blocks off this dispiriting ugly morass of shady businesses (wig shop or pawn shop anyone?). It is an eyesore to say the least and traffic utterly sucks. Walking along it or crossing it is dangerous and unpleasant. I live in a house worth $1M+ and try my best to pretend it doesn’t exist. Unfortunately it never seems to go away…despite decades of plans for revitalization. [/quote] Well that was a stupid place to buy an expensive house. If you wanted to live in a nice area without wig shops and pawn stores maybe silver spring isn’t where you should have invested.[/quote] Since when are wig shops "shady"?[/quote] Because ~~black people~~ shop there.[/quote]
