[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rockville High School cluster in Montgomery County. [/quote]

Not what most people consider to be affordable housing prices.  You are paying unreasonable housing prices for the school district which is no longer as top-notch as it used to be.  The school district has made some terrible decisions over the last few years and you are no longer getting as good a school system as the housing prices should merit.[/quote]

You can get a nice SFH in the Manor Woods community that feeds into Rock Creek Valley ES or Barnsley ES for around $500K. It is a great deal and Rockville HS is truly diverse and has an IB program. The issue with MCPS is the BoE, not the curriculum or its teachers. [/quote]

There's currently only one home in Manor Woods and it is $565K which is good for MoCo, but not particularly affordable per SF compared to Howard County.  I looked out that area a couple of years ago when there was slightly more inventory (pre-pandemic) and this is on the lower end of comps.  The cost per SF was higher back then, so while it is a good deal for MoCo, I think there are better options in HoCo that give you at least as good schools as Manor Woods.  Just my 2 cents.  But certainly is more affordable than many other parts of the area.[/quote]
