[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We will need to rent for the first year.  Commute I would prefer no more than 30 min commute to work. For rent we are thinking $3500-4000. [/quote]

Ok, that is a tight budget, but here are some options on the Maryland side:

If an apartment works for you, check out the Topaz House in Bethesda, MD. It is an older high rise, with a fair number of families. It is in the Bethesda Elementary district. Although the school is less than a mile away, the bus picks up at the front door, because of crossing major streets to get to school. This building is two blocks from the metro and pet friendly, roof top pool, across the street from an excellent gym.

If you are looking for a house, look in central Silver Spring for houses to rent. Zip codes 20910 and 20901. Houses for rent go quickly. Silver Spring is more affordable than some of the areas and has a lot of midwesterners. We get to know our neighbors, have block parties, aren’t pretentious. It is an area with lots of federal workers and college professors. [/quote]

Nooooooooooo.  Stick to Falls Chuch.  MCPS is super dysfunctional right now.  Hell, for the past 15 years.  Falls Church is your ticket[/quote]

Agree.  MCPS has been ruined by woke democrats.  The same type of extremists control FCPS, but they have only just begun to destroy a system built up for years.[/quote]

oh please "woke democrats" have not destroyed Bethesda elementary.

OP I am sorry but this is classic DCUM-- you will get some people who really want to help you and you will get some people who want to fight their internet wars with your question, so you need to take things with a big lump of salt because there can be useful information on this board but at the same time many of consider it to be alternative universe which has little in common with the real world in which we live[/quote]
