[quote=Anonymous]Whether you are a MCPS apologist or fighter of 2.0, you lost money buying a house to get access to MCPS. The decline of MCPS is one of the biggest reasons why areas beyond very close in Bethesda haven't recovered from the 2009 crash, its one of the reasons why Silver Spring never became the hot market that you saw Arlington become over the past 10 years.

Montgomery County doesn't offer much beyond schools. Professional jobs are all in DC, Virginia and Howard county. The good in-state universities and colleges are in VA. The better taxes are in VA. The cool factor of living in major city is in DC (and no walking to Fuddruckers in Silver Spring is not cool - LOL). It doesn't have cute little towns  like Frederick. Since NOVA is very liberal now, Montgomery County doesn't even have being a blue state area as a draw.

MoCo used to be the place to go for the schools. Now it is becoming where to go to get more for your money of you can afford private schools or where to go to save money if you don't care about the quality of your schools.
