I live close to downtown Bethesda, 2 minutes away from my favorite restaurant, because:

1. My husband has a 10 minute bike commute to work.
2. The public schools are a good.
3. I love the idea of a quiet suburban life with leafy sidewalks but also excellent walkability to restaurants, shops and metro.

You know what I never do?

Shop at the stores you mention :-)

You sound like my friend's husband, who also works in Bethesda like us, but is jealous he could never afford to live there, and who thus denigrates that little town whenever he can.

If you were really rich you would be paying Bethesda taxes and still sending your kids to top-tier private. It's folks like you, so proud and protective of their middling place on the social ladder and assuming anyone who has other values an't afford it, who ruin perfectly nice places. [/quote]

WTH? I'm not the PP but this is nuts. PP was explaining why she lives there, not claiming to be wealthy. Your response is way off. In fact, it's people like YOU who ruin perfectly nice places, including DCUM. Who wants a neighbor like this???[/quote]
