[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you choose to live in Arlington if you were working in Alexandria? Why not just live in Alexandria?[/quote]

What is up with you people?  OP clearly said schools are important and I don't know anyone from Arlington who would send their kids to Alexandria Public Schools.  [/quote]

Then you need to get out more. I know plenty of people who have kids in ACPS who live lives a lot like mine.

OP - Alexandria is fine, but it is a complicated city and it will feel further from home than Arlington.  It definitely feels like a Southern town.  We really like it there, but in the end picked Arlington for mostly irrelevant-to-you reasons (I'm from Cobble Hill, BTW).

As for synagogues: Maybe they've mellowed, but Agudas is the most traditional of the synagogues around and doesn't have a history of being welcoming to the interfaith.  I'd definitely look at Etz Hayim if you want conservative or Beth El if you want reform.[/quote]

OP, read this thread about ACPS https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/15/801319.page#14962327[/quote]

ACPS is Alexandria and APS is Arlington. [/quote]
