[quote=Anonymous]No, there's nothing morally superior about owning vs. renting. But it's much more than a financial choice, at least for high SES parents who plan to stick around DC for more than a school year or two. When you buy a residential property, not primarily as a rental or an investment property, you make a commitment to sinking down roots in a place, at least for a while. You have skin in the game. I'm not impressed with those who rent apartments simply to gain school and tax addresses. I certainly wouldn't tattle on such a parent to DCPS, but I wouldn't want to associate with them either.
