[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello - my husband and I (biracial late 30's AA/White) are looking to move to the DC/NOVA/MD area from NYC. We have a 3 month old daughter and are relocating due to me taking a new position. My job will be based near the courthouse area of Arlington and he will be working by Union Station. The question is where to live. We have a budget up to 900k to buy for the interim but would like to rent in a diverse area with a walkable downtown that will be comfortable for our family. For example we lived in Brooklyn for years then moved to Maplewood, NJ before our DD was born. I hear good things about Takoma Park/Silver Spring Maryland but worry the commute would be too much. I would like to use the metro to get to work (the old NY'er in me). Any advice would be great. And by diverse I mean yes all ethnicities but at least 10% AA middle/upper class. [/quote] Petworth. You can take Green/Yellow Lines at Petworth station to Orange Lines at L'Enfant and your husband can transfer to the Red Line at Fort Totten. For 900K you would have a bunch of housing options in the neighborhood. It's super diverse and new restaurants and retail are popping up all the time. [/quote]
