[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is saying it but the reason people stay is because of the small, fairly homogenous school system. Interesting how different FCC schools are from schools that are practically in the city (I'm looking at you Timberlane, Graham Rd, even Shrevewood).[/quote]

The main reason FCC is so in demand is because of the small, excellent school system, especially when compared to Fairfax and Arlington.  As far as homogenous (62.6% white, 13.6% multiple races, 13.1% hispanic, 7.3% asian, 3.3% black; 11.7% economically disadvantaged; 8.2% english language learners) FCC schools demographics are similar to the top schools in surrounding districts. Compared to FC and Arl you will not see so many complaints on DCUM or anywhere else about FCC schools.  There is a lot to value and appreciate in a small, well run school division and many people do, given the extremely high demand for any homes that are available, despite the higher taxes. The current average citizen in FCC is Democrat, liberal, [b]enlightened[/b], highly educated, and involved in the community.  Some on DCUM like to remind you of the shameful racist history FCC had 60+ years ago (along with most of Virginia back then including Arlington and Fairfax) as if that continues today even though nothing could be further from the truth.

There are also many other reasons people love FCC and want to raise their kids there besides the schools.[/quote]

How are my neighbors enlightened? please do tell....[/quote]
