[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because schools are big. ES have 500+ kids instead of small ones. And it only gets bigger from there. [/quote] +1 Everything is on a massive scale.[/quote] Yes. And even if you do find something walkable it's very rare to be walkable to ES and MS and HS.[/quote] And if you ARE walkable to all 3, there's no way you're walkable to stores too. The only two that I can think of are North Chevy Chase Elementary & Ashburton Elementary -- they're both walkable to stores less than a mile away... maybe Cabin John too? [/quote] Parts of Kensington are technically walkable to downtown and also ES, MS, and HS. I’m just a tad bit too north to make it convenient but it’s technically possible. [/quote] +1. We walk to elementary (OTES) and grocery (Safeway in Kensington or Giant in Wheaton) and technically could walk to MS and HS (but probably wouldn’t cross University Ave to do it).[/quote]
