[quote=Anonymous]The elephant in the room is that Silver Spring and Montgomery County at large is getting older demographically and not keeping up with places like Arlington. Compare places like Ballston and Crystal City in 2000 to Silver Spring and Bethesda and then compare them now. Bethesda was FAR nicer than Ballston and Crystal City in 2000 and Silver Spring was about as nice. Fast forward to the present day and, if you’re arguing in good faith, you’d have to acknowledge that Crystal City and Ballston have become far nicer compared to 2000 while Bethesda hasn’t made as much progress. Downtown Silver Spring has backslid since 2000. Far more economic progress and development have come to Arlington compared to Montgomery County and I don’t see this trend reversing anytime soon because MoCo will keep electing people that are seen as anti business compared to Arlington and DC.
