[quote=Anonymous]Others have already covered housing so I won't go there. Childcare is SOOO expensive here. I was talking about nanny rates with my sister almost 10 years ago. She thought I was talking about daily rates. Nope, I was talking hourly rates. The same is also true of day care centers. I have a sister who worked in day care elsewhere. She was floored when I told her how much centers cost here. Also kid activities. This summer we're going to be staying with family long enough that I'm putting my kids in some sports lessons. Lessons are literally half the cost. I've even noticed small price differences between chains in Fairfax vs. Arlington.[/quote]
