[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the Forest Glen posters: Which neighborhoods specifically should I be looking at?  We have around a $500,000 budget. We did some open houses this weekend checked out those houses for sale that are west of Georgia, South of Plyers Mill, and East of Connecticut.  The houses in our price range are bigger to the east of Oakland Terrace EC, but is the Kensington side of Silver Spring more desirable?  Should we also be looking to the east of Georgia? If so, how far north (Dennis?  University?)  It's so confusing!![/quote]

Personally, I would look for a house in the neighborhood that is north of Forest Glen, south of Dennis, east of Georgia, and west of Sligo Creek.  I don't live there but it's a very nice neighborhood with good parks, walking trails and Metro access (though you will have to cross Georgia to get there).[/quote]

Thanks.  So few houses have popped up in that particular area since we started looking in April, so it must be popular! [/quote]

20902 resident - this is our neighborhood.  I've seen two for sale signs and one coming soon sign in the last week (the coming soon sign was just today, on Belvedere... another one on lower Sanford I want to say).

Love it!  Very walkable, only thing is not a many places to eat here in walking distance - but hop in your car or on metro to SS and you're there.  Neighborhood is very friendly, you'll have no problem building a community.  Judging by the # of Hillary signs last fall (many) versus the 1 Trump sign, which caused a bit of a ruckus after the election, I'd say we are quite left-leaning and generally a very accepting and diverse neighborhood.

I can't comment on the schools, which seems to be one of your outstanding questions.  Everyone is bickering about elementary schools but has made little mention of the middle or high schools...[/quote]
