Lucky-you    :)   ...we'd go to Boston IN A HEARTBEAT![/quote]

NP here. This thread is interesting. I'm trying to make myself have the "want" to move to the Boston area to be close to family now that I have kids growing up. I've never lived there though! My sibling relocated to that area so I have visited quite a bit but don't know if I could handle cold winters and cold oceans at the beach! But I do like that there seems to be decent options in housing, not amazing bang for the buck, but pretty comparable. I like it here, but I'm not married to the place- the pull of family is getting stronger as I get older too.[/quote]

Having lived both places, Boston and its western suburbs are definitely pricier than DC.[/quote]

For good reason.

Really? Interesting. I am the quoted PP. I wonder if the areas you are comparing are both above my market anyway though. It wouldn't really matter if a 1 million house here would go for 1.5 in comparable burbs in Boston, since they aren't what I would look at. Does that make any sense? I wonder if it shifts at all by stata of homes?

We would be looking in the 500-600 K range. I have friends from college who hail from Weston (sp?) and the surrounding burbs and I know that is ridiculous as far as prices go, but I wonder what apples to apples would look like for us.

Again though- the weather seriously holds me back
