[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like this thread has completely derailed, but for folks wanting to find a balance between density, walkability, and good schools, I highly recommend  checking out the Rosslyn- Ballston corridor.  It’s changed a LOT over the past decade, with more change to come.  You’re going to find diversity, varied housing types, and the ability to live a car-free or nearly car-free lifestyle, if you choose.  The county offers great youth rec classes and there are lots of parks and restaurants and other things to walk to.  I think when people discuss the sterile Arlington, they are talking about 22207.  I’m not going to claim Arlington schools are the best in the region (and I would be laughed off this board if I did) but for folks that don’t want to fully decamp to the burbs, it’s a great option.

Thank you for this sane and actually useful suggestion.

Can you share the names of a few elementaries, or a HS triangle, that are fine (does not need to be the best at all) to give me a jumping off point for looking in that area? I know zip about the schools in that area but have socialized there and like it and can see what you mean.[/quote]
