[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much does being three miles from a high school effect housing price. From what I've seen even in rural areas with easy drives, it knocks of a hundred or two hundred grand from the price of the house. Most people would prefer a school that is a seven or eight over being three miles in congested traffic from the school.[/quote] Honestly, having grown up in the area, I thought for sure that we'd move into the Fallsmead or Rockshire neighborhoods because had a lot of happy memories there. But when shopping for homes there, kind of saw that you're really just paying for the proximity for the good schools. The homes are old, expensive and a lot of the lots are really weird, I think because there are a lot of elevation changes in that area. If the Crown school will eventually incorporate more parts of Gaithersburg, it will give more options to look at in the area and are closer to the school. So think that homeowners in the communities near the current Wootton location are justifiably concerned about the impact on their home values. They still have the elementary and middle schools going for them. But buyers can look at additional options too.[/quote]
