[quote=Anonymous]Speaking from personal experience as someone who had ES aged children in a townhouse -- I would NOT choose a new construction townhouse over a dated single family home. NEVER. First, your kids won't have any friends in those neighborhoods. The people buying are either young couples without children or investors who are going to rent them out to young couples without children. You'll likely have a revolving group of neighbors living in a group house situation. Second, you can EASILY find SFHs in that price range zoned to those schools or similarly rated schools. Buy an SFH in an established neighborhood so your kids can have neighborhood friends and a yard to play in. We just moved out of our townhouse into a SFH and it has made a HUGE difference in my children's lives. They go outside all the time now. The fresh air alone is worth it.[/quote]
