[quote=Anonymous]NP here, was watching this thread with great interest as we are considering Mclean as one of our choices. Reading a few posts, not just this thread, seems like Mclean has a bad rep among DCUMs. It is portrayed by some posters as a suburban wasteland with zero walkability that exists in some sort of a space/time warp that prevents its inhabitants from getting into the car and driving for 20 min into the heart of the city. Is it really that bad? we will be moving from NYC with 100% walkability and prior to this we used to live in Dupont area. Moving back for family reasons, family is in the district, so looking for the close-in suburb with excellent public schools and easy drive to the east village in Gtown. Don't want to be miserable, but cannot afford to live in any urban part of DC and at this point after living in highly urban environment with crowds and lines everywhere, we are looking for something else, more relaxing, more space and not stress about schools.
