[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did and moved into Barcroft.  The elementary in Barcroft is really stressed right now because of the low income housing and the city won't expand the school or shift anything around.  Hate to hurt my own property values by saying that....

I have not heard one bad thing from Wakefield parents, their kids are thriving.  And man, I got a lot more for my money in S. Arlington.

The pike is not so good, but honestly, go a couple blocks off the pike and the neighborhoods with sfh are lovely. Barcroft is really nice, fabulous neighborhood I have to say.  Some old with renovations and expansions, and some new. Amazing to me that hte Barcroft school is like 70% latino because the local non-pike neighborhood is not.

We love it!

You live in Arlington yet you don't know that it's not a "city", but, rather, a County (which can matter in VA)?   Back to study hall ...  :wink: [/quote]

You have hoisted yourself on your own petard, PP.  don't bother with study hall, but simply Google Arlington VA and you will see it is a city and a county.  I bet you think that Reagan Airport is also in Arlington. Or is it?[/quote]

You're wrong, but Virginia is weird in this regard (where things are incorporated cities OR incorporated counties but not both). Most other places in the country, cities are still part of the county they are geographically located in.[/quote]
