[quote=Anonymous]OP here again. First, to the earthy crunchy people whining about environmental stuff: I get it. But families need to prioritize these days. I work full time, DH works full time. As feds (with pretty much decreasing salaries), we don't have $1 million to buy a 4 bedroom home in North Arlington on the metro. Alexandria is not an option because the schools stink and housing costs are equally high. We like Great Falls. We like the schools. We like that there are wide open spaces and fresh air, and that our kids and pets could actually have a real backyard with a swing set and places to hike to. So all that being said, we would all most likey carpool in together or alternatively drive to metro and then take metro in, once that becomes an option. The Silver Line will make a huge difference. FWIW, we also looked in the W. Springfield / Burke area, but have heard equally depressing horror stories about the commute up 95 and/or VRE. So, it really bothers me that some eco-crunchy judgemental biatch is talking about "sustainability." Don't get after me, but get after your public administrators to build more public transportation infrustructure![/quote]
