[quote=Anonymous]Takoma Park sounds like a great suggestion.  It has a hippy reputation, but the hippies are aging and the young families are liberal but not really hippies, in my opinion.  As a PP said, it has great community spirit, its own metro station, good schools on the Maryland side, farmers market, a quirky "main" street with at least two bike shops.  It does lack a bit in terms of a restaurant scene right now, but my sense is that it is actually becoming a sought-after place for restaurants and will only continue to improve down the road.  In addition to the many fantastic ethnic restaurants right by TP, the downtown recently saw the addition of a great pizza place (Roscoes), Soupergirl--homemade, vegan, organic soups, and Takoma Bistro (by the same owners as Bread and Chocolate).  The coffee shop in Politics and Prose is expanding and opening a cafe in TP, and the owner of BlackSalt is said to be opening a restaurant with a seafood bar there within the year.  Add to that the ever-cool store Trohv, which opened recently, and maybe TP is even becoming sort of hip!   [/quote]
