[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are my reasons:

Crime 
Lack of diversity  (I like the international feel of Fairfax better as suppose to the monoracial social settings) 
Terrible Schools (my uncle who currently teaches in PG County talks all the time about how terrible it is to teach there and he taught in DCPS for years)
No great shopping, restaurants, or cultural amenities like the other surrounding counties
Corrupt local leaders
Mentality (there is no desire or focus on change there.  It continues to decrease in regards to quality of life)
DC gentrification (As DC continues to gentrify many of their cesspool of criminals, Section 8 government dependency types, and ghetto fabulous types seem to flock to PG County which is another reason for the crime and poor quality schools.)
Police Department

Also, this may not be PC to say, but I'm going to say it, "I really don't care to live around African Americans who continue to ignore the pathology that exist within their communities and I am African American.  It's just sad to see the pathologies in PG County and to accept it as the norm.   Even talking to relatives whom reside there they seem to accept the dysfunctionalism as normal life.  It drives me totally insane to see my people settled for less than what they deserve.  I mean PG isn't Baltimore City or Southeast DC, but the Washington DC area have better options for families to live.    There is a reason why the homes are so cheap there.

Your logic is absurd.  People can say the same things about Washington, D.C. which is still 49% black, yet the housing market could not be better.  The schools also suck, compared to other jurisdictions.  People have always complained about DC being corrupt, but folks are still flocking here.  I would not live anywhere else and our last house was in Chevy Chase, MD.

Like anyplace, there are nice parts to PG and bad parts.  The same is true for Montgomery County.  [/quote]
