[quote=Anonymous]I live in TKPK and have kids who are going through the schools. You are probably thinking about the historic district based on your budget, which will put you close to all the restaurants and such. I have no concerns about safety, at least not more than if I lived in DC or any other close-in suburb. My kids are all over the town on their own, ride the public buses regularly, meet their friends in town or at any number of parks, and can walk to school starting in elementary school and going all the way through 8th grade. The public schools are good, too. Not great, but I'd say the same about any of the MoCo or DC schools. They are just very big, so you need to be engaged as a parent and student to maximize the benefits. I like CCDC, too, but my read is that Takoma Park--especially the part near the center of town--feels more like a small town, which I like. Tons of interesting people, and in general, it is very social (in my experience).[/quote]
