[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious to know if the people talking about Germantown have actually ever lived there. Or are you just looking at school stats?

I'm not a PP but I used to lived in a townhouse across the street from Northwest behind the Clopper Mill Village Shopping Center when my oldest was a toddler. We made sure to get out before he entered school. We live in Rockville now so we aren't super rich like Bethesda or Potomac families. We are very happy with our elementary that feeds into RM and the tons of amenities we have here. You must live up in Boyds because where we lived was pretty bad. The parks were nice and our townhouse was very pretty and it was an extremely diverse area but there was definitely a higher than average amount of crime. We had to call the police multiple times after we heard yelling and teenagers sneaking around in the alley behind our house. Houses on OUR block had been broken into during our time there as well. Maybe near Woodcliffe area it isn't as bad but that isn't a huge area itself. We moved after we heard GUNFIRE for the second time... yes it was really a shooting. I'm still shocked some people still think Germantown is a great area. [b]We even lived on the nice side![/b] Our previous experiences there continue to make DH and I stay way clear of Germantown. The shopping center always had empty storefronts and the Shoppers is not very nice. [/quote]

Sorry, the area by the Shoppers shopping center isn't the nice side. --used to live in Germantown, now live in Clarksburg

So then what is? Waters Landing? Cinnamon Woods? Gunners Lake? Fox Chapel Area? Milestone? Town Center? Pretty sure it is this area since it has the two best elementaries(Matsunaga and Great Seneca Creek which are both still pretty average).  [/quote]

The townhouses behind Shoppers is way too close to Cinnamon Woods to be on the nice side. The area right around Matsunaga ES is nice, there are pockets in Waters Landing. The neighborhood around Gibbs is nice. Around McNair is nice. The area by the SoccerPlex is nice. [/quote]
