[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't redistrict and bus people away from their communities you spread the housing out.
So, more low income housing spots in the upper income areas (spread out , not all in one spot otherwise you have a 'wrong side of the tracks' exclusion thing going on). Add some McMansion developments to lower income areas - they will come. There are plenty of liberal people who would move to such a neighborhood as long as it has what they need - easy access to public transportation, parks, shopping, community.

The only holdouts for this concept are the people of Potomac. They want no mixed housing, no ball fields, no schools, nothing. You have to wonder why the county is so afraid of them.[/quote]

Potomac has Tobeytown. There is no real estate available for urban type housing available as all is privately owned. And they really aren't near public transportation.  The buses have no where to go, move around and turn. I can barely drive down some roads. The bicyclists - ugh!   [/quote]

There are a bunch of low income sections as well as public housing and other housing programs that feed into those schools.  They are pretty well hidden.[/quote]
