[quote=Anonymous]We just moved here last year. I'd have to say there is a definite "pool culture" in the DC suburbs -- much more so than I've found in other places I've lived. I think it is a combination of factors: there are just so many newer communities than have their own private community pools (at least here in MoCo) rather than a general town pool, which is often more bare bones; it is hot here in the summer and being outside without water nearby isn't that appealing from June-August; the nearest ocean beaches are several hours away, and there aren't too many lakes or streams to swim in nearby either; the competitive DC vibe dovetails nicely with the whole swim team thing. Having said all of the above, I must admit we enjoy going to the pool in the summer. It is a nice social outlet.[/quote]
