[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ward 3 is beautiful and I can see why some people love living there, but its too vanilla for me. My ideal DC neighborhood would be a home in the U Street corridor (with off street parking). I'm granola meets urban chic and still under 30 fyi. Being in walkable distance from a Whole Foods, more than one metro, and Ben's/Ben's Next Door would be awesome! My friends and I were leaving Lauriol Plaza last week and were joking how we'd all be in trouble if one of us lived in walking distance.[/quote] You'll change your mind when your sweet little toddler bends down to reach for some drunken bum's poo on the sidewalk.[/quote] LOL! I think picking up dog poo is far more likely. I have a 2 yo now and we're happily condo living in Ward 8. Like a previous poster mentioned, I'm more comfortable with "noise". A native Washingtonian, I'm probably one of the few here who actually attended DCPS growing up. We still have a pretty active social life, and regularly go out with friends and "date". I have alot of family in the area and my parents expect overnights with DD almost every weekend. We're 28 and 30, so our interests could change, of course, but I think I'll always be a city gal. The club wasnt too appealing after 25, but I've always enjoyed restaurants and live music and regularly indulge. I want DD to have street smarts like we did as kids. If I wanted the suburban-in-the city feel, I'd move back to Brookland. Gorgeous homes, fairly walkable, Metro, and great charters (we're only interested in strong bilingual programs). [/quote]
