[quote=Anonymous]We wrestled with this same question. Best advice I can give is to come and take a drive through the various neighborhoods. Talk to your agent, but also ask if h/she has former clients in some neighborhoods of interest you can talk to. Ultimately, this type of thread will fill up with a lot of noise and people grinding axes about this or that. But you don't really know much until you dig a bit deeper -- esp. re schools (school ratings are very limited -- how do the families in that school feel about its pros/cons? that's more helpful). Also, don't dally. If you opt for a closer in neighborhood at higher price points (e.g., TKPK MD, Woodside Park -- really just means bigger houses/lots and better walkability to metro and shopping, etc.) the inventory can be tight and things can move quickly (but who knows what this year's spring market will look like).
