[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People will say that Takoma Park is as close to downtown as CCDC, but it's not as close to the parts of downtown you are likely to spend time in. It's also a trek to VA, Tysons, and Rockville corridor, which are places you will occasionally need to go. I lived in Silver Spring for a long time and if I could have afforded CCDC, I would have much rather lived there. Yes, downtown Takoma Park is cute. But it's tiny.[/quote]

I also live in Silver Spring, and while I agree with the overall sentinment (if I could afford the same size home in CCDC I would rather live there,) I think this is off. TP is just as close to downtown via car (30 minutes or so) and metro (maybe even closer), and it's just as much a pain in the ass to get to Tysons Corner from either.

But PP is right that the downtown area of TP - which I think OP is referring to when trying to compare and contrast - is tiny compared to the size of CCDC. And outside the downtown area you're looking at typical pre-war capes and colonials of 1,500-1,800 SF.[/quote]
