[quote=Anonymous]Actually, there is some busing in MoCo. Look at the BCC cluster. It is gerrymandered for racial/economic diversity stretching from River Rd all the way to 16th St. Arguably a very successful example of busing. I think it works partly because the BCC area in MoCo is sort of semi-urban, rather than fully suburban. There are plenty of apartments (some of them even affordable for low incomes) in the same cluster as very expensive SFHs. I don't know MoCo well enough, but surely there are some other contiguous areas of MoCo where this is the case and busing could be considered. I don't think busing kids to/from Potomac and Langley Park would work. Too far, too much traffic. And obviously busing would not be the answer to all problems. But might be part of a solution.[/quote]
