[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks everyone- I am more depressed now than when I wrote the original post, but I guess I can't create a neighborhood that doesn't exist![/quote]

I think no matter where you live in the country there is always this tradeoff between living in "the City" and having this walkable urban feel and that same location having the best schools up thru high school with SFH and tree lined streets.   This is even before you start talking about a price range.  The closest you will get in this area is the built up suburban downtown area like Arlington and I'm not sure about the SFH in the price range.

The good news is you do have a budget with quite a few options.  If you say you are looking for a great elementary and willing to send your kids to private school after and the most important is space and close-in urban walkability, you may get one set of answers.  If you are willing to move out to burbs ( like Kensington or even Bethesda)  you can find the cute tree lined street and great schools but you may not be a close walk to a metro.  I like the pp that suggested looking at 2 houses in your price point in some of the areas people suggested and figure out the things you are willing to compromise on and your absolutes.[/quote]
