[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about Newton?

Lucky-you    :)   ...we'd go to Boston IN A HEARTBEAT![/quote]

NP here. This thread is interesting. I'm trying to make myself have the "want" to move to the Boston area to be close to family now that I have kids growing up. I've never lived there though! My sibling relocated to that area so I have visited quite a bit but don't know if I could handle cold winters and cold oceans at the beach! But I do like that there seems to be decent options in housing, not amazing bang for the buck, but pretty comparable. I like it here, but I'm not married to the place- the pull of family is getting stronger as I get older too.[/quote]

Having lived both places, Boston and its western suburbs are definitely pricier than DC.[/quote]

Pricier, and you get less. The housing stock is much older in comparable locations. Still, I enjoy the cold weather so that isn't an issue. And it's just a much nicer area overall. Would move back in a heartbeat.[/quote]

The age of the housing stock is a plus to me.

OP, how about Arlington?  Similar to Silver Spring in terms of urban-suburban.  Easy access to Cambridge and Boston.[/quote]
