[quote=Anonymous]My spouse and I are African-American and we're happy so far in West Springfield with our two little kids. We're in the West Springfield HS district and did a lot of research on schools in the area (DC, MD and VA) where black students perform well and it's one of the few without an achievement gap. The area is predominantly white (outside of PG county, that's basically unavoidable), but it's still pretty decent. We're in a neighborhood with a high number of Asian, African, and Hispanic families. Also, the area is popular for military which means increased likelihood of minorities. I'm ivy league educated and a lawyer (for whatever either of those are worth) and many of my AA friends and colleagues have settled in this area and even more are looking to move in.[/quote]
