[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had never heard of that school and am surprised there are highly regarded so close to Wheaton.  A good alternative for low income families [/quote]

Your post is really offensive and not a low income school.  [/quote]

Well it isn’t an affluent school. It is a Wheaton school that has more SFHs than the avg for that part of the county even if if they run on the cheaper side. But the problem remains with decent elementary schools in marginal areas (as always) is the next level and the level after that when they combine with the not so decent schools that the local parents were happy to avoid initially.

Most of the families we know make $140-300K or more.  Just because we don't choose to live in fancy overpriced houses doesn't mean we are poor.[/quote]

Ahh the old the people in the poor part of town are the real rich people trope. Yes that is the most prevalent demographic group near Wheaton, 6 figure families :roll:

The median household income for the census tracts serving Oakland Terrace are around $100k-$140k. That’s not massive money but it’s also a median, so half are above and half are below. You can look it up here, but I don’t think you know where this neighborhood is anyway: https://datausa.io/profile/geo/montgomery-county-md

Any house is going for $400-800K+ so anyone who is very low income has owned the house forever or renting and even so the rents aren't affordable on that income.  Most make twice that amount, if not more.[/quote]
