[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We don't live in Mclean, but I've met a lot of parents and children from there and overall they are well off financially and spend a lot of time with their families and kids. Many families have a stay at home parent and if both parents work, one or even two of them have very flexible jobs. The schools always seem to have great teachers, the curriculum always seems to be engaging and challenging, there are a lot of great enrichment programs at the school and in the community, and the children seem to be excelling and are friendly. I do think there are a lot of neighborhoods that don't have the neighborhood feel that some other places in Fairfax do. I also don't like that there are a lot of kids attending private schools in Mclean neighborhoods. The schools do a lot of differentiation though and through this, they tend to have smaller class sizes than some other areas nearby.[/quote] This is spot-on and also goes for Great Falls. Though I have to say, our neighborhood does have a great, neighborly feel. We love it here. [/quote]
