[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP! Just providing a view separate from the naysayers. I am from the NJ burbs (Monmouth County) and absolutely love it in DC. I work from home, as does my husband, and am not tied here because of a job (although DH has to head to client sites in the DC area sometimes). We're in Cleveland Park and I love it! I second those who recommend Georgetown (especially for the charm though you'd lack yard space), Cleveland Park, Glover Park, Woodley Park, Tenleytown, etc. I don't have any children yet, but I know that those neighborhoods' elementary schools get excellent ratings on Good Schools. Capitol Hill is also really charming, but safety is more of a concern. I love the old homes, (mostly free) cultural institutions, dining scene, and park space that DC has to offer. Plus I'm only a 2.5 - 3 hr Amtrak or 3 hr drive away from family in the NJ/NY area. I find DC to be a clean, walkable place with friendly-enough people that's less overwhelming than NY. Good luck! [/quote] Do you visit family once a week though?[/quote]
