[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We relocated to the RVA suburbs so DC can attend a specialized program in the Henrico County. It is very similar to the NoVA suburbs but with less traffic. 99% of the moms are SAH, blonde, thin, and very soft spoken and there are lots of families from old money, so even the houses in the suburbs are nicely decorated with quality furniture. I grew up in McLean, DH in Bethesda, and the RVA suburbs are the same, very meh. They don't hold a candle to Pacific Palisades, Topanga Canyon, Santa Fe, Telluride etc. and other truly beautiful places.
The city is fabulous, with great architecture, restaurants, and farmers markets. It is very artsy and quirky due to VCU, something that DC doesn't have, and you won't meet a lot of paper pushers. It is also much more outdoorsy than DC and, if you are into that, there are lots of outdoor activities right in the city. Our kids took a ton of outdoor camps. The antique shopping is amazing, as good as the one in Hudson.

You'd move to a city for antique shops? [/quote]

No, but it's a major plus for me. If you read my original post, we moved here for schools.  [/quote]
