[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm a native of DC (a rare bird). I understand and empathize with your concerns/complaints. We live in Dupont with 2 young kids. It's true that we pay a lot for preschool + nanny. I dont have commute issues like you but I probably pay alot more mortgage than your rent so I understand the pain. The lines of work my DH and I are in we simply cannot move somewhere where our lifestyles would be drastically different. SF, LA, [b]Boston[/b] and NYC [b]are places we've considered or had offers but none of those places are cheaper, less traffic,[/b] etc. It's all the same if you decide to live in a major city. You will need to scale down to smaller city or town. I don't think many of the things you are saying about DC are unique to DC.[/quote] Actually, Boston has much less traffic than DC does. There are studies about these things. The housing there is somewhat cheaper and far more interesting/diverse than it is here.[/quote]
