[quote=Anonymous][quote] People prefer to live closer in where they aren't as dependent on cars to drive everywhere.[/quote] People have been told the current trend is for walkable communities so they buy into small-lot communities like Bethesda and Chevy Chase MD and then end up driving everywhere anyway. Because realistically the vast majority of homes in Bethesda and Chevy Chase aren't within walking distance of commercial activity or other amenities either. Most of Bethesda was developed after WWII, around cars, and while Chevy Chase was an older streetcar suburb, most of it (and especially east of CT Ave) isn't walkable to anything except within a few blocks of the tiny/limited commercial strip on Brookville Rd.[/quote]
