[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, the area along Connecticut from Fessenden to Van Ness has more of what you are looking for than Tenleytown (basically the sweet spot is between Wisconsin and Connecticut from Fessenden to Van Ness). For your morning coffee alone you have Soapstone Market (brand new), Breadfurst, Little Red Fox, Politics and Prose. And there are a lot more apartments and condos along Connecticut to choose from.

We live in the middle of the area and have commuted to the same two locations you mention downtown and it is quick with lots of options, since you have immediate access to Rock Creek Parkway, Connecticut, Reno, or Wisconsin. Just check your phone to see which is moving best at the moment and hop on. The longest it took was 35 minutes, but normally 20 to my office. My colleague lived in a downtown Bethesda condo and it regularly took 50 minutes to an hour leaving at the same time. Plus you can walk to Van Ness and Tenleytown metros.

Bethesda is very nice and has better shopping options overall, obviously, but it is more congested, and it is further so you obviously will have a longer commute. I'd put daily commute over weekend shopping.[/quote]

Also agree with the PP that compared the different vibe re: residents.  There is a (noticeably) slight difference. [/quote]
