[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you anti Capitol Hill mom? Because I like you too. Even if I might like parts of Capitol Hill. If my kid was younger, I'd be all over Petworth or Brightwood. As it is, I'm not sure. [/quote]

I think that's me.  I'm in Petworth, but we've always thought of Shepherd Park as our next move ;-). Great mix of kids at the school, good programs, BEAUTIFUL grounds and I hear that interior renovations are recently done or near completion.  One thing I love about that neighborhood is that it was intentionally integrated from the start.  When redlining and white flight started changing neighborhoods in the late 40s and 50s, Blacks and Jews claimed SP.  Now younger families of all stripes are getting along well with old timers - something that doesn't happen as much further downtown.

And I'm not anti-Capitol Hill, I just think the tensions there are a little uncomfortable right now and you have to be familiar with each area and its issues to land well.  You may get here, do a little research and find it's exactly what you want.[/quote]
