[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will likely be moving to work right off the yellow line. While I'm fine with the metro, changing trains, etc... I'd like to live off the yellow line just to reduce commute time (I'm currently spoiled and even 10 minutes each way is worth altering my residence for). Does anyone have any experience with schools (public or charter) easily walkable to the yellow line? Cost is also an issue (and a strong reason I'm considering not living in the district). [/quote] We live in Petworth and really like it. There are a number of charters and DCPS options up this way that are walkable. [/quote] +1[/quote] Do you guys have any particular schools in that area that you have experience with or know about? There are a ton in the city so I'm a bit overwhelmed. I'm checking the school ratings sites and school websites, but its a lot and I figure this is something to do to narrow it down. I can't spend my life touring schools beforehand.[/quote] Powell for dual-language, West for traditional. But that's quite a train ride down to Pentagon. Why not live in VA further south?[/quote] As in S Arlington/Alexandria? I am looking in those areas too. I don't want to get off track, but we're not sure where in the area my spouse will work and would like, at the very least, somewhere with sidewalks and neighborly streets without huge lots.[/quote] Are you new to this city? You don't know where you are going to live, you don't know where you are going to work - you just know you want a school somewhere near a metro. Possible to be yellow, green or blue. Do I have that correct? Have you factored in.....bus lines????[/quote]
