[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not family friendly. It's well known as a neighborhood among the younger set where you move if you're single and want to "clap some cheeks" after a night out having cocktails / wine / whatever. [/quote] What does that mean?[/quote] It’s like sex but you face away from each other and bump butts. It’s a Covid thing. [/quote] Not what I was expecting to learn on this board! Union Market/NOMA could be fun with kids until the school issues arise. [/quote] School issues in NOMA/Union Market are not much different than a lot of neighborhoods along H Street and on Capitol Hill. Not great IB options but quite a few OOB options nearby plus a lot of charters within short commutes. A nice thing about Union Market area is that you are walking distance to Two Rivers, JO Wilson, Ludlow Taylor, and CHML, but just a short drive to Langley, ITDS, and a lot of the Brookland charters. In some ways Union Market is better situated for schools than much of CH because of access to charters in Brookland/Edgwood.[/quote] Walking distance to a school doesn't mean your kid gets in...[/quote] It would not be hard to get a spot at JO Wilson from Union Market and it's incredibly close. Also about to get a huge renovation so if you were moving there now with plans to enroll in a few years, you'd be golden. Ludlow-Taylor is also walking distance and while you won't get in for PK most likely, there are often spots there in K or 1st grade. The charters are a bit of a crapshoot, however with both L-T and JO Wilson improving in recent years, it's become easier and easier to get into Two Rivers because more families are choosing to attend their IB school instead.[/quote]
