[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if you are a nice, normal, halfway intelligent person, you will realize in about 10 minutes that this forum generally consists of 20-30 people who post over and over and over again, most of whom hate DC because they’ve been laid off, forced to move, are “too poor” for whatever they deem worthy of their station in life, etc. DC (the real area, not the DCUm version) attracts people from all over the country (and the world) — surely you will get better advice from those people than the ones who tend to hang out here and offer gems like “Bloomington, Michigan” is where things are really happening. I promise you that outside of this forum, many people like DC and even seek it out. This includes those of us who have moved from cities like New York and Chicago. Can’t speak for Bloomington, Michigan, and I’m sure the shopping malls are high end, indeed. For those high class citizens that rank cities on the basis of shopping malls, anyway. It is true that if you make a lot of money, you’ll be happier here because it is very expensive. But there are many great suburbs and areas of the city that people (not anonymous crazies) can tell you all about. Including areas of Bethesda, Chevy Chase, McLean, Arlington. There are beautiful homes and less beautiful homes - much like you’ll see in westchester or newton or, even (I’m just spitballing) the great state of Michigan. I don’t know anyone as miserable in life as I see on this forum. It is just bizarre. Good luck in your move and search for the right suburb for yourself. You’ll love it wherever you end up.[/quote]

Not OP, but I needed this reminder! I saw family (from another city) recently and they were saying how much they love DC, and I noted that people here complain about the area a lot. And they thought that was bizarre. But these posters may have skewed my memory.[/quote]

This is straight cope. There are definitely some negative nancies on here, but the dc area still sucks. I just got back from Richmond and the suburbs there make ours look like a joke, and they’re half the price. No one “seeks out” DC, that’s just laughable. [/quote]

And with “no one” you just made the point. Please tell that to all the people moving to the DC area every year. How about you get off your computer, poster who has probably made 50 of the previous posts, and get outside. Or take some medication that will make you less miserable. [/quote]
