[quote=Anonymous]Another Barcroft resident here. I have a kid at barcroft elementary, and so far things are ok even with the dozens of new low income kids that showed up to school in sept. Overcrowded is an understatement, but so is north arlington. Lived in a townhouses in north arlington until able to buy a sFh in south. Love it here. The pike is ugly and the western part is going to get more low income housing, but it is still awfully nice here. Unless you hang out on the pike, and we don't, it is a world away from the nice streets in the neighborhood. Safe too. The slightly "better" education in the north just was not worth it. The only difference really is the socio Econ status of many kids in school. So what, my kid does fine and sure is learning a lot. Would I have preferred north? Sure, who wouldn't. But I grew up in a shit shack, and I am not going to let my kids live like that. I come home to a nice house in a nice hood![/quote]
