[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=shirirb]REALLY REALLY? I have to give up and move to the suburbs? There's no reasonable alternative in DC metro? [/quote] There are lots of great areas in DC, but DC isn't 35 minutes from Columbia. Columbia is an exurb. It's not 35 minutes from DC. [/quote] Yes it is. You can do upper NW DC to Columbia in 35 minutes--not always, since traffic varies day to day, but absolutely within the range of normal.[/quote] Googlemaps tells me that from the MD line where it intersects Western, it's 33 minutes to Columbia in the middle of the night. Some of that is on 495. I can't imagine that traffic won't add more than 2 minutes to the commute every single rush hour. Furthermore, anyone who rejects downtown Silver Spring as "too suburban" isn't going to love Chevy Chase DC. The fact that it's got a "DC" address doesn't make it urban. [/quote]
