[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are a two parent, two kid household and are busting out of our house.  I'm fairly organized and have used every space I can, but we've gotten to the point where we simply need more space!  We hate to leave the city but, we can't afford significantly more space in our current neighborhood (or even the city.)  Our kids are in private school, so we could really move anywhere, but VA is out of the question for hubby.  I have fallen in love with this home: http://www.redfin.com/MD/Silver-Spring/9501-Colesville-Rd-20901/home/10966238  We can afford the renovations on it, but hubby doesn't think that the neighborhood is an overall improvement from what we already have. Am I missing something?[/quote]

I'd say almost no crime, a big yard, good schools, no parking worries and no public housing projects are definitely an improvement.  Plus, the Hill is even more depressing place in the Winter; scary dark streets and alleys, people afraid to walk around or even to their cars after dark and neglected children running around without coats on.  [/quote]

Are you teasing? What a weird response. The Hill is beautiful right now--lots of decorations--and I've never seen a kid here running around coatless in cold weather. And I walk lots of places after dark, including from my house to all the many stores and restaurants that are within a short walk.[/quote]

Why feed such a boring and predictable troll? At least make them work for their supper![/quote]

The poster is probably talking about my son.  He just simply refuses to wear a coat most days.  Insists he's not cold.  He's definitely not neglected though.  Sorry to disappoint you.  Love all the great decorations, walked to the train exhibit at the Botanic Gardens today.  Enjoyed the various decorated windows along PA Ave.

Anyway, agree with PP's that the commute would do your head in.  [/quote]
