[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer the original question, I don't know yet but will be moving to Landsdale in Monrovia, coming from MoCo. Looking forward to a younger community, good amenities, good schools. I am hoping there will be even more diversity with the new developments.

There are too many people on DCUM who think a long commute is the end of the world. [/quote]

You too will become one of those people after you’ve done the Linganore - DC commute for a year or two.  Good luck.[/quote]

On a good day, that’s a rough commute.  Landsdale and Urbana don’t have it as bad, since they are close to 270.  Linganore is another story.  Tons of new houses going in there and no infrastructure to support it.  To get out of Lake Linganore, you have to take a bunch of winding country roads.  These roads aren’t equipped to handle the influx of traffic.  Even worse, these roads are not safe.[/quote]

Lansdale is built on a tiny farm road that was bucolic even 5 years ago.  You have signed up for overcrowded schools (Green Valley wasn’t meant to absorb all those kids and the Urbana schools are their own problem- even with a new elementary), a characterless neighborhood (no pool, no club, just a bunch of tract homes on old farmland), worsening traffic into Urbana, no walkability to anywhere, and tiny lots.  Enjoy your commute into Urbana (which used to be a dream but is now a traffic issue unto itself) and down the hell of 270.[/quote]

“Bucolic,” unfortunately is a thing of the past for Urbana, Monrovia and South Frederick County.
