[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hands down DC, for all the reasons others have said. We moved here from Brooklyn (Park Slope) because this was a better/easier area to raise our family. We love NYC, but unless I had several million dollars and could afford a decent sized apartment in Manhattan, I would never move back there with kids.[/quote]

Amen!

I agree.  We moved here from Cobble Hill with 2 young children.  [/quote]

Not surprising, you can get rowhouse living in DC for so much cheaper than Brooklyn and you don't even have to move to the burbs to have an SFH.[/quote]

But you get real urban amenities in Brooklyn. When we lived in a DC row house we still drove most places because the local offerings got old very fast. [/quote]

There isn't anything like Park Slope or Cobble Hill, but there are many walkable decent neighborhoods with nice architecture and because DC is so small, it's easy to get around on foot, also cleaner.[/quote]
