[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Budget? Commute?  Where in Westchester did you live?

This area just doesn’t have the town centers like Westchester does.  And lots tend to be small, so you may have to look around for .25 acres if that’s important to you.  [/quote]

OP here. What does the area have instead of town centers? Strip malls?

We were in the Rivertowns, but looked all over Westchester and talked to people in Scarsdale, Bronxville, Rye, Mamaroneck, etc and it all seems to be the same. One exception is White Plains - we like that vibe a lot.

We're flexible on budget, finding the right area to live is more important. If it's expensive, we can just buy a smaller house. Hoping to stay under a million but could go up to 1.2. Commute under an hour. [/quote]

Rockville is all strip malls.  They're trying to build it up but Rockville Town Center is struggling.  Pike & Rose is a mixed use development, I wouldn't consider it a town.  Bethesda and Silver Spring each have a down town -like city center.  For under $1 million you can find something really cute and walkable to downtown Silver Spring. Look in 20910, elementary school is Woodlin[/quote]
