[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where in the DMV would you recommend living if your priority is walkability/bikeability (say to school, maybe a few shops, a library) and a good middle/high school? Hoping to spend less than $800K for a 3 BR. Proximity to DC not necessarily a priority. [/quote] Takoma Park near the metro[/quote] +1. It’s a unicorn in the DMV. Schools are good, close-by and most things are walkable.[/quote] Piney Branch Elementary School and Takoma Park Middle School seem decent, but Montgomery Blair High School is 4/10? Can anybody share some insights about those schools[/quote] GreatSchools rankings are dumb. Little bit out of date but teachers that responded to a survey in 2018-2019 seemed quite satisfied with Blair relative to the rest of the county. Parents' satisfaction was generally average. In both parents and teachers at Blair were happier than parents and teachers at BCC high school. https://sharedaccountability.mcpsmd.org/SurveyResults/content.php?sch=757 [/quote]
