[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No doubt some Amazon employee may find PG to be affordable if they can get over the lack of cool.  (Of course, if some Amazonians start moving in, how long before we will start hearing the whining from certain PG quarters about ‘gentrification’ and ‘inclusion’?)

The reality is that there was no Amazon contest for PG to lose.  It was never a contender.[/quote]

"Lack of cool?"  Since when has someone taken on a mortgage because a place was "cool?"  I bought a house because it was a good location for commuting, but to each his own I guess!

And I keep saying this, but MOST of PG County could not gentrify because most of PG County is NICE.  It is mostly pleasant suburb.  Unless gentrification actually means "[b]replace black people with white people" [/b]I do not understand how a lot of the county could "gentrify."

I agree that PG was never a real contender for something like Amazon, although it would have been a great candidate.  We are close to DC, lots of Metro, lots of space, less congested.  But maybe you should occasionally visit PG before posting about it?[/quote]

This will never happen because let’s face it, how can they look down on the folks who have the same educational and economic status as them? They prefer to move out those who are beneath them and tout their status.[/quote]
