[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised no one has mentioned the housing stock and 'feel' of NYC suburbs compared with those around DC. NYC suburbs have significantly more character in my opinion. Most NYC suburbs were built as railroad towns in the 1800s. You will never come close to finding a spot as charming as Ridgewood or Morristown, NJ (for example) immediately outside of DC.[/quote] These charming town are not immediately outside of NYC either. They are far.[/quote] Well, NYC is opposite of DC in that the nice suburbs aren't directly next to the city. You have to get through the gritty stuff first.[/quote] Ha, in NoVa you have to slog through Arlington before you get to the more upscale communities like McLean and Great Falls. In Maryland, some of the close in areas are nice but Potomac is farther out.[/quote]
