[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are the 3 counties really some of the biggest recipients in the US? How so? I thought real estate around DC was more expensive than ever. Which affluent towns are taking knocks because of the influx of illegals and other downscale immigrants?[/quote] Yes they are the biggest recipients of unaccompanied minors in the DC area and one of the biggest in the nation only after some counties in Texas, Miami, LA, etc. PG is the highest, followed by Fairfax, then Moco.[/quote] I'm the one whose parents' 5-bedroom home is going for the 300s. I don't want to be specific re location, but it is a close-in suburb (10 minutes to DC) in Montgomery County. When they bought it in the '70s (I grew up there), it was a big step-up from their starter rambler home (3 bedrooms, 1 bath). They bought the bigger house because not only did they want (and were at that point able to afford) a nicer home, but they wanted better schools for their kids. Ironically, that starter rambler - half the size of my parents' current house - is now worth the same (around $350K) as their large, "step-up" house - and the school district from which they moved is actually rated higher than the one they're in now. It is because of the influx of illegal aliens, who have brought the school system down. [/quote]
