[quote=Anonymous]Not everyone from the Tri State is as one poster described. But you will find most on DCUM to be.....interesting. So, OP, we just moved to the area before the pandemic from North Jersey where your community type environment you describe was over the top. I have also lived for several years in Fort Lauderdale and Dallas and know EXACTLY what you are referring to. My kids are still young (11/10), we live in CC MD, and to be honest, I have buyers remorse. I’m sure some of it is pandemic induced, but I don’t get the hype of living here. It’s not so community / small town focused, but it doesn’t have (IMO) the great allure of “city” living either. My kids continue to say all kids here do is bike and hike, and they would gladly move back to the 954 and/or 201 in a heartbeat. I suppose it is what it is, but having lived in 9 different states over the last 15 years, DC ranks lowest. Not cause it’s bad, just because there are many places that are better. [/quote]
