[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and while we are not ready to buy, we came across a house we love in Acton. It's farther out than we would like, but it made me currious about the area. What D.C. suburb (on the VA side) would it be most similar to? Again, we are planning to avoid a commute into Boston if we can (neither of us have commuted into D.C. fo over a decade).[/quote] I grew up in Acton. I can't think of a DC suburb akin to it. It has a seriously powerhouse high school. That's why people live there. What neighborhood is the house in?[/quote] Yeah - suburban Boston is very different from DC area because it was settled as a bunch of separate towns 150-200+ years ago, not through suburban sprawl post-WWII. If you needed some kind of analogy, think Darnestown or so - pretty far out, but some stuff nearby. But not a good analogy at all.[/quote]
