[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are you people living that you have multiple illegal immigrant families living in the same house?  I live in Rockville West End and no house in my neighborhood has that.  [/quote]

Give it time.

We have seen this phenomenon increasing in several areas.  It’s a fantastic business model for the landlord and they rake in cash without the associated tax liability.

For now, we’ve seen this in Twinbrook, Aspen Hill, some areas of Silver Spring, Manor Woods, some of the areas in Rockville that are closer to Viers Mill, the areas off of Randolph Road.

Definitely anywhere the illegal investor can buy a home for less than $500K.  I say illegal investor because these guys don’t follow any of the County’s rental regulations.  [/quote]

Not many homes going for less than 500k in the neighborhood west of the Town Center.[/quote]

And this is why wealthy liberals continue to vote for policies that encourage illegal immigration.  Because it doesn’t affect them in a meaningful way.  If their neighborhoods and school were actually being affected by the issues, maybe they would be more empathetic as to what middle class families in the County are facing.  [/quote]
 
You don't think people buying houses for 500-600k are middle class?[/quote]

Not really.  I'd say if you can afford a $550K home, you're probably doing pretty well.  Even in this area, that's a decent chunk of change for housing.  Maybe Upper Middle Class?[/quote]

I bought a 600k house with 20% down and a 110k HHI.  I wouldn't consider myself "upper middle class".  I just bought at the very top of my price range allowed by government DTI calculations.  [/quote]
