[quote=Anonymous]To the OP, coming from Michigan I can tell you that it is really hard to find what you are looking for here. I seriously miss my town and jealous of my old friends who live a much simpler life that I too think is much healthier for kids and their parents.  I have moved 3 times and we are currently in Germantown and like it so much more than Bethesda or Arlington. This area is so high stressed with this strange need to out stress their lives to others. Like you aren't cool unless you are constantly on the go. Spending a day with your kids without any plans are for the weirdos, lol.  The goal of DC Metro families is to drive a Lexus SUV, have lawn care, house cleaners, expensive gym memberships, send their poor kids off to camp all summer long (not day camps, like 10 weeks of sleep away camps!!) They have their kids in private school, expensive activities everyday of the week, top of the lines clothes, shoes, purses, etc....  Their ideal family life is seeing their kids 2 hours a day and one week in the summer.  I have found that it is ideal to look for women who are not originally fhon this area, stay active in moms clubs (although they can be just as bad with over scheduling) and find the cheapest preschool.  Get involved in public schools. Move further away from the beltway. My friend is in a beautiful new home in New Market and her entire street is SAHM's.  Just like you will vent about the lack of community, there will always be those moms that will never do anything about it around here. Good luck in finding a new home and community. Do a lot of research!![/quote]
