[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PH is so controversial. I want to love it because it's close to WFC metro  but I'm hesitating buying there. My spouse is opposed to PH due to what he associates it with when he was growing up in the late 80s early 90s nearby in a more affluent area. In his mind PH=My name is Earl residents (to exaggerate a tad). I'm the one trying to sell PH for its location and value, but no use. So you'll get people like me, then others still set in their old views. If there are enough people like my spouse, PH will need another 20- 30 years for some perceptions to change.[/quote]

If you look at the other side of the neighborhood the silver line stop is within walking distance is set to have some redevelopment which will produce more walkable amenities.[/quote]

Per Google Maps, it's over a mile and 30 minutes or more to walk to the nearest Silver Line station from the western part of Pimmit Hills.  If you want a 15-minute walk that's less than a mile, look at the Hunting Ridge development in McLean, on the other side of Magarity Road from Pimmit Hills and also close to the Commons development that eventually may be redeveloped.

I think you need help using google maps here are the details of taking the middle and a few block into the neighborhood. (this isn't the closet on the farthest edge which results in less walking time). Also note that you could drive to the mclean parking lot in under 5-10 minutes or bike in about 10-15 minutes.
