[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And your posts are exceedingly rude. I think I would be worried about your children setting bad examples in my well to do suburban school to be honest. I was 14:02 about New York which you thanked me for so I'm not sure why I'm holier than thou. You keep discussing how you won't move out past Arlington or Bethesda but then exclaim that suburban Ohio is the way to go. I've merely pointed out that many of us are happy in the suburbs and even have jobs out here verses DC and feel comfortable about getting a job in the future if needed. If you don't like that option or any others presented to you, please move.  As others have said, DC isn't the end all be all, but it isn't the pits either. There are $400,000 houses in our neighborhood with a 500 student population, but they aren't brand spanking new.  You'd probably find fault with that too.[/quote]

I'm glad you're happy in the suburbs here.  In my view if I have to move to the suburbs for a good school, I don't have to live in the suburbs here.  In my case I can live in suburbs near my entire family, see my COL go down, my QOL go up, and get a good job in my field.  So many of you seem incapable of acknowledging that this is possible anywhere outside of DC or another large city (frankly, DC is not even a large city, by any measure).  There are plenty of mid-sized cities out there where this is achievable, and people have their reasons for pursuing that as an option.  It may not be what would make you happy, and you may not agree with the reasoning, but that doesn't make it an invalid choice and it doesn't make people stupid, or provincial, or whatever other baseless charge folks want to throw out there.[/quote]
