[quote=Anonymous]1. Great schools in walking distance (preferably public) 2. Urban environment 3. Other children nearby 4. Very high walk score 5. Liberal 6. No geographic limitations 7. No financial limitations 8. Great housing stock (can be small or large, house, apt or other) So of the upper NW neighborhoods listed, I'd look specifically at Cleveland Park and AU Park/Tenleytown. Neither Chevy Chase nor Glover Park have metro, which, in my mind, makes them much less walkable. Also Woodley Park. All three are liberal (very); walkable (although CP is HUGE, and not all of it is close to walkable amenties--I'd say you want to be within 8-10 blocks of the Connecticut Av shopping village (by metro); similarly with Tenley/AU Park. All have a bunch of kids as well as good playgrounds. Walk to shops, restaurants, library, movie theater. Quick metro ride to downtown, museums. I have no idea what the housing stock is like, however. [/quote]
