[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You really need to look at the Hill.  If you've lived in Brooklyn you're not afraid of walking so you could end up with a walk to Union Station and another to the orange/silver/blue for the commute to Courthouse.  It's a wonderful community for families with plenty of walkable stuff.[/quote]

Higher crime than where OP would have lived in Brooklyn.   OP moved from the city to Maplewood- a charming safe small town in Essex Cty NJ near Millburn and the Oranges.  OP got a typical small GOOD NJ school district.  Maybe 5 schools in the entire district and OP would never have to think about charter school lottery, redistricting from Wilson [if in DC], S Arlington's -Alexandria school issues, etc.  So Takoma Park is a bad commute for work but OP and Montco MD has income tax so OP could comfortably live in N Arlington, parts near Mclean or Mclean or City of Falls Church.

For people who lived in those little NJ towns with school districts dealing with the BS of MCPS/FCPS/DC etc is annoying at best.[/quote]
