[quote=Anonymous]Whoever is writing some of these comments is very misinformed. I have lived in East Rockville for nearly 10 years, and it is not all the same neighborhood demographically. Some parts of it, such as Croydon Park and Rockville Park, for example, which are nearest to the metro and downtown are NOT working class anymore. My neighbors are mostly federal government professionals, middle management people, and there are even quite a few lawyers in these districts and houses in these areas range from 400K to 800k depending on condition and style and size. These are perfectly safe areas, and very neighborly and I am on a first name basis with everyone on my block and we all look out for each other. The farther east and north you go from the metro, things change demographically, and there you will still find working class streets, though some new, younger white collar professionals are colonizing these areas as well. I walk the entire neighborhood at night and it is calm and quiet. It is an area where you can live with just one or even no car and have closeby walkable urban amenities with an suburban feel. Frankly, we are a well kept secret and the fear is that we are slowly being discovered and this is forcing up prices as the bethesdaization of the neighborhood occurs as the old timers move out and sell their homes.
