[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly don't see the appeal of choosing CCDC over Bethesda/CCMD. It's worth it to go a few blocks farther in order to live on the Maryland side. The MCPS schools are pretty good, and you have way more amenities in Maryland. At a minimum, you'd have a neighborhood pool (summer outdoor pool club) that you could join if you live in Maryland. (In all of upper NW DC, I believe that there is one outdoor public pool, and it has limited hours.) If your child goes to high school in MCPS, there are a lot of way to participate in school sports against the 20+ other high schools in Montgomery County. The commute really is not that different -- not enough to make up for the shortage of amenities in DC, in my humble opinion.[/quote] The private pool club point is wrong: Portions of CCDC, nearly all of Barnaby Woods, and all of Hawthorne are in-bounds for the Rock Creek Pool Club. The pool itself is in MoCo, but DC families in these WOTP neighborhoods and in Colonial Village are eligible for membership and are not left with the “one outdoor public pool” in “all of upper NW” as their sole pool option.[/quote]
