[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They list whatever is on the property record. Ours DC record says Wakefield and no one has ever hear of it, but that is what the listing said when we bought the house.[/quote]

Everyone has heard of Wakefield. People who live there say they live in CP because it sounds more elitist. But it's Wakefield.[/quote]

Ha, no. No one has heard of Wakefield; they think you mean VA when you say it. I've never heard anyone in Wakefield (which is tiny) say they live in Cleveland Park. They are north of North Cleveland Park. When people inevitably respond, "Where is Wakefield, never heard of it?" the answer, since Wakefield is a part of ANC3F which is mostly Forest Hills, will be "between Forest Hills and Tenleytown: or "just below Chevy Chase DC." In fact, one corner of Wakefield by Politics and Prose will be outlined on Google maps for both Chevy Chase and Wakefield in a search for those neighborhood names, so most people on the north end will just say Chevy Chase. In any case, Wakefield is close enough to walk to the commercial centers of Tenleytown, Wakefield, Chevy Chase, Friendship Heights, and Van Ness, plus all three metro stops. Any of those would be used to describe where it is before Cleveland Park, though maybe on the south border folks might say North Cleveland Park since it is across the street. In any case, it is really hard to buy into a SFH in Wakefield as they are so rarely on the market.[/quote]
