[quote=Anonymous]The vast majority of my friends, like me, grew up in the DC metro area. As a group, we're here, we're raising our kids here, we have no plans to leave. Friends and I laugh when we get that whole "it's so transient!" and "no one is from here!" crap from people. Interestingly, none of us work in crazy high-pressure fields or make big bucks. More like county and city employees, nurses, a think-tank person, some lower-end consultants. Decidedly not the striver class. I did leave, twice: for college, and then for DH's "dream job" in one of those supposedly wonderful lower COL sprawling suburban "cities" where there is abundant free parking as far as the eye can see. We were miserable.[/quote]
