[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I had an answer, OP. The DC job market is hard to beat, security wise, for many of us. We compromised by moving out to the exurbs where schools felt less stressful and life felt a little less chaotic.[/quote] For us, moving into the city and being able to walk to school and work made our lives infinitely easier. I grew up in the suburbs here and absolutely hated relying on rides and having a more fragmented community. Are you one of these people who thinks that you need a 3,000 sq ft home and private schools for one child? DC’s public schools are generally great thru elementary. And your kid can test into a high performing HS. Your jobs make it sound like you could easily afford to live here. Live near the park, find a good ES, and you’ll find a good community. Not sure why you’re wringing your hands unless you think you need a $3M home. [/quote]
