[quote=Anonymous]I can't speak to Sherwood specifically because my kids are not in high school yet, but I can speak to living in Olney/Brookeville. The community out here is very family oriented and it feels extremely safe. I grew up in Silver Spring where leaving your bikes in your garage let alone your lawn would be almost a guarantee to get them stolen (we had ours stolen TWICE). I like living somewhere that my kids can leave their bikes on our lawn for DAYS and they are still there. The parents may be over the top, but I think that's because they are SO involved in their kids lives and in the schools. I think that is only a good thing. I have seen a lot more diversity in the past 10 years and I think that will only increase going forward. I think the main complaint about living out here is how far it is from DC or Baltimore. We very much miss good restaurants, but the older our kids get and the more embedded we are in the community, that isn't as important to us anymore. It really is overall a wonderful place to raise your kids. I also LOVE living so close to more of a "country" vibe and getting my kids out into nature more.[/quote]
