[quote=Anonymous]I like Del Ray a lot and almost lived there, but it isn't walkable in the sense that you don't need a car to get to important stuff. There is no walkable grocery store in Del Ray. Lots of young families, though, and not a difficult commute but public transportation relies on the bus system. The "new" metro in Potomac Yards won't exactly serve Del Ray when/if it ever happens. I think Old Town might suit you better with your budget because you can actually get a place near the metro and near grocery stores, if that's important. Cameron Station is a newer community with less character and charm but does have a few amenities, is somewhat close to the metro, easier commute for dh, and also has, I think, a preschool in the community that you could easily walk to. The nearby park is nice as is the farmer's market in the warmer months.[/quote]
