[quote=Anonymous]We live a mile from the metro in Silver Spring and use it frequently. We only have one far and both hate driving so being close to public transportation has been key. We actually use the bus system more frequently than the Metro even. Silver Spring is a major transit hub so there are buses going everywhere anytime. I wouldn't rule out the bus system in some areas. We wanted to be somewhere we could walk to restaurants, stores and groceries and not be reliant on a car to get anywhere and places with Metros usually have all that. I think if you don't like driving and are used to being able to get around without a car, you will not be happy in a suburb away from the Metro. We paid about $50k more thank the same houses farther out but it has been completely worth it. [/quote]
