[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools in the "affordable" area of Gaithersburg, which means east of I-270, are awful.  You'll be paying high Montgomery County taxes and getting very little in return.

The Gaithersburg schools on the west side of I-270 range from okay to fairly good, but you'll pay almost as much to live in those areas as you would to live in Bethesda, where the schools are much better.

Check out Howard County.  It's not that long of a commute from Howard County to Gaithersburg, and you'll get much more house for your money and much better schools.

Gaithersburg (and Montgomery County in general) is in a serious decline economically and educationally, and there is no sign of a turnaround.[/quote]

What are you talking about? Please look up Rachel Carson Elementary School or Jones Bridge, or the other schools that feed into the Quince Orchard Cluster. Excellent, Blue Ribbon schools.

Pp has no idea what they are talking about or where Gaithersburg is, apparently.[/quote]
