[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beverley Hills/North Ridge in Alexandria may meet a lot of your criteria as an option to check out. While the Alexandria school district gets a lot of deserved flack on DCUM, people really enjoy the Charles Barrett and George Mason elementary schools (look at private beyond elementary). You see kids playing in the streets all around and lots of block parties and community events. The Blessed Sacrament parish community (there’s another one in Alexandria aside from the MD one you’ve seen recommend here) is pretty vibrant. We see lots of kids from the neighborhood at mass and CCD, and there are many social events. The commute to downtown or Georgetown is well under 30 minutes if you don’t have to leave at the peak of rush hour - if you’re leaving to come home from downtown at exactly 5 pm, it’ll be longer; if you leave at 4:15 and log back on at home, it can be 15-20 minutes depending on where you’re coming from. Lastly, lots of people in the neighborhood go to Army Navy CC, which is really close by. [/quote] +1 lots of Catholics here. I find Del Ray, which is nearby, very very friendly and walkable also[/quote]
