[quote=Anonymous]There are lots of different communities in the DMV with very different feels and cultures. Takoma park vs Wesley heights vs Tenley Town. I like Arlington as it feels more like normal life for me. Mostly people use the public schools and go to VA public universities. Lots of people adjacent to defense and military, well run county w community engagement, parks, libraries, good camps and sports that are affordable. We use private now (previously public) but that's unusual here and makes life logistically harder. But we've found really nice families in public and private. We also emphasized commutes as that is the biggest impact on day to day life so we have smaller lot but close in and metro accessible. You could look at city like Charlotte as lots of financial services and southern vibe is more laid back (I grew up in Atlanta) but some of the sprawl can make those cities harder to navigate. I'd try to determine exactly what it is that makes you nervous about doing school here or having a six year old. There are many ways to solve for that too.[/quote]
