[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would do it. keep your house and rent it out. Rent a small apartment on Capitol Hill or Silver Spring, and see how you like it. Worst case scenario you can always return after a year or two having experienced something different for yourselves and the kids. I won't say ignore the naysayers - it is important to know what you are getting into - but you should also know that many of us love it here. The museums, the international and intellectual environment, the work opportunities, are things you cannot get in Boise.[/quote] I love DC, too. Though, the lifestyle is quite stressful for a single mom of two small children. It's lovely to visit museums and experience other stimulating elements of the town if you have time after taking care of the essentials of life. OP's children would likely appreciate a move to a major city, even more, after aging up a little bit. [/quote]
