[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want something other than lily White then Linganore wouldn’t work. I’d go to Urbana instead. Also Linganore is often in local news for things like shouting racist #%^* at basketball games. [/quote]

Linganore is 83.4% white, 2.4% black, and 1.7% Asian. Landsdale community which is pretty diverse feeds into it but a lot of the families there currently have young kids who are still at elementary school. At some point, Linganore will slowly become a bit more diverse but for the most part, the kids attending that high school are outside of Landsdale, meaning it will still be majority white.. and very Republican given the communities they are coming from. [/quote]

Hmm, I thought Landsdale fed into Urbana?  Is that a recent change?[/quote]

Yes, since the 2020-2021 school year when they reassigned the boundaries between Urbana, Linganore, and Oakdale. A lot of people don't know that since I believe real Estate sites like redfin still show homes in Landsdale assigned to Urbana.[/quote]

That’s quite a bus ride up to Linganore. But I’m not surprised. They totally overbuilt that area and let the developers shun their responsibilities wrt schools.[/quote]

Yeah, that place is pretty bad.  On top of your neighbors like Urbana, but no benefit/walkability of Urbana.

That's why we decided to look elsewhere. The community might be nice but when you get out of it, you have to drive on 10-15 minutes of winding, dark roads through farmland before you get to civilization. [/quote]

Yeah.  We also looked (and bid on, but lost) on a house near by in the Windsor Knolls division, which has the same drawback, but at least you don't feel like you're on top of your neighbhors, and there is some maturity to the neighborhood[/quote]
