[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The folks who can’t afford a good location are moving to aldie, leesburg, etc. No one actually wants to live out there. [/quote] :roll: There are plenty of us who just do not enjoy city life or life in the close in suburbs. I live in an exurb and cannot image a circumstance in which I would move back to the close in suburbs. [/quote] It’s all the same “life” regardless of your distance from dc. What changes are schools, commute, demographics, cost of living, and amenities. They all improve close in and that comes with a cost that’s unaffordable or not worth it for some. I don’t think anyone is comparing Aldie to living in DC. [/quote] No, it’s not the same “life”, my day to day life is drastically different in my exurb 40 miles out than it was when I lived 5 miles from the DC line. All those things you mentioned make up a life. The schools my kids are at now are better than where they were in MCPS, the cost of living out here is much better, and I have access to all the amenities that are important to me. It’s fine that others don’t have the same priorities that I do when it comes to quality of life, but for me and my family our quality of life was much worse closer in than it is now. [/quote] 🤷🏻♂️ You upgraded from a bad part of MD to less bad part of VA. Google the school rankings for Aldie, they’re nothing to write home about. [/quote] none of the schools in loudoun are to write home about. but that’s what you sacrifice; cheaper cost of living for worse schools and living 1.5 hrs from DC. [/quote] I thought the schools in Aldie would be excellent because of the heavy presence of South Asians but I was wrong. People are starting to move to private.[/quote] Can a post scream “I’m a total racist” more than your post? JFC.[/quote]
