[quote=Anonymous]My sense is that, when you put aside the mudslinging between DC and NoVa residents, the fact remains that NoVa families with kids are a particularly unlikely demographic to move into DC, for a host of reasons. - They are less likely to be familiar with DC to begin with (MD has more out-migration from DC). - They may work in NoVa, so living in DC provides no commuting advantage - They are more likely to have picked NoVa for the public schools (VA doesn't have nearly as many good privates as DC and MD, yet it has multiple jurisdictions with strong public schools) - The people who can afford a house in a nice DC neighborhood are likely to live in very nice parts of NoVa - The people in NoVa who can't afford a house in a nice DC neighborhood can't afford a house in a nice DC neighborhood.
