[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This isn't really an apples to apples thing unless you have an unlimited budget, because housing in Brookland is way more expensive than in Hyattsville. [/quote]

Fair. This is considering a budget in the 500-600k range. You can get a house in both places in that budget, albeit the brookland house would be older and/or need work. In Hyattsville you can build a house and have cash to spare. [/quote]

If your kids are infants and you are up for serious sweat equity, I'd choose Brookland. If your kids are approaching kindergarten or you don't have the time/energy/know how to do or supervise home repairs yourself, I would choose Hyattsville. Because in that price range, you're looking a very small place (2 bedroom, maybe a condo) or a total fixer in Brookland. If you have small/preschool kids, you might also want to consider houses in Woodridge, Brentwood, Edgewood (maybe too expensive already) or between Brightwood, Takoma, and Ft. Totten, where you could get something that won't need any work at around $500K. [/quote]
