[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools:  Bethesda schools are more focused on academics.  Madison HS in Vienna is focused on athletics.

Local Government:  Vienna has its own town government but it’s really just known for having its own police force that loves to issue tickets.

Real Estate:  Bethesda has more older, charming neighborhoods. Vienna has more cheap, tacky McMansions.

Taxes: Taxes are higher in Maryland.

Vibe:  Bethesda attracts better educated people with more interesting jobs. It can also be oppressively Type A.  Vienna is extremely conformist and has a “don’t rock the boat” mentality, but if you play by the rules it’s lower-key than Bethesda. [/quote]

So wrong….

School is equal at best. Madison is highly desirable school with top academics, equal or better to schools in Bethesda.

Vienna is known for being the suburb of well off doctors. There is a “judgement” map of Virginia. Look at what they labeled Vienna neighborhoods as… “rich doctors”, “crazy rich doctors” etc.. The area on the north side abutting McLean and Great Falls is highly sought by tech executives (tech people everywhere because it’s between Tysons and Reston). Yes, the homes are giant McMansions but so what? That’s a negative? Can’t afford it so you’re hating on them?
