[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]RM is is surrounded by low income?  Yes it is a diverse area but I don't think the folks in the Wootten Cluster (just south) and QO Cluster just west would like your description.  Rockville HS to the east has some great neighborhoods too.[/quote]

RM actually has low income and a lot of it.  Lincoln Park, Twinbrook, HUD apartments by college gardens ES, low income apartments off Rockville Pike near Wintergreen. Heritage House is all HUD/low income. MPDU sales in all the new apartment buildings in fallsgrove, park potomac, new condos in twinbrook, king farm, etc...  Most of them go for 100K max mortgage.   I think 25% of Rockville Town Center is low income rentals as well.  Where do you think all the FARMS come from?  Ritchie Park 25%, College Gardens 15%, Beall 28%, Twinbrook 65%   RM is no different than QO and Rockville has a slightly higher Hispanic and FARMS.

I am not sure of the appeal of RM.   [/quote]

That poster quoted was implying that !many people cheated to get into the RM cluster because it was surrounded by low-income areas.  It had nothing to do with the actual makeup of RM[/quote]
