[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, for most people buying a home is their largest asset/purchase. There are usually several factors that drive such a decision.  Is school zoning honestly the only reason people buy homes? Schools were a bonus, but more things about my actual home were my primary motivation for buying. With MCPS quality changing as time goes on, I think many buyers  tend to prioritize other reasons.[/quote]

Which is why I tell people that if my family were just starting out again now, MCPS would be one of the lowest options for us.

Where schools are indeed a major factor for us when looking where to live.

If MCPS is changing and declining, it just gives us less reasons to consider it because it doesn't make schools less of a factor for us.

The only reason why we haven't just picked up moved is to not uproot our kids.  But if MCPS chooses to separate them from the rest of the kids they went to elementary school with due to boundary changes, we might as well just move because they would be separated from their classmates either way.  Honestly because there isn't many other reasons for us to stay in Montgomery County.  Maybe there was ten years ago but all those reasons aren't applicable for our family anymore.[/quote]
