[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A couple things:

* The NoVa is for millennials, MoCo is over meme on here doesn’t play out in my experience. Older, established neighborhoods in both locations are full of aging boomers. There aren’t millennials living in SFHs in the Yorktown HS district in Arlington, McLean, Potomac, Glen Echo or Great Falls. Similarly, you see just as many young people at Mosaic as you do at Pike and Rose. If anything, if you’re looking to raise a family close in I’d argue that Bethesda and Chevy Chase are much better for families than close-in VA, like Arlington. Much better schools (BCC is a 9/10 compared to 7/10 Yorktown and 5/10 W-L) and downtown Bethesda is a much better place for teens than Clarendon because there aren’t as many young, drunk frat boys lurking around. Go both places on a Friday night and see where you’d rather have your kids hang out. There is a bigger network of private pools and clubs for families in Bethesda as well.

*MoCo is trying not to attract as much development as VA. Knocking it for not having as much job creation is odd. I’m sure if Arlington permitted mixed-use hi-rises along Lorcom Lane and Military Road it would lead to job growth, but would that be good for quality of life and make it more of a desirable place to live? Like PP said, MoCo is greener and more open. There’s a reason for that: purposefully limiting growth.

Yeah you didn’t develop on purpose, it was all part of some grand strategy

Please, you elected incompetent people who scared away businesses and now you are facing a death spiral of taxes and no growth [/quote]
