[quote=Anonymous]Given the big financial hit you would take to move, I'd stay and work on other avenues of socializing as PPs have suggested. Clearly you valued a lot about this type of neighborhood so focus on what you do like about it. Keep at it with the activities you are doing. It takes a while to get to know people. In another thread about making friends someone who is good at wrote a great explanation about how she presents herself in a welcoming, open way and the steps to gradually starting to initiate a friendship. Be aware that elementary school can have much more opportunities to get to know people in your neighborhood. We live in a very compact neighborhood but didn't have any kids right near us and I mostly was friends with people I knew through my kids' out-of-the-neighborhood preschool. Once they started school it was shocking to find out all these kids lived here that we'd never met![/quote]
