[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spring valley or Wesley Heights

It’s a beautiful place to live. Both neighborhoods have walkability to stores and restaurants, a car is most likely necessary for many trips, and it’s incredibly safe.

I’ve never once seen anything bad happen In my 10 years of living in Wesley Heights (will get a little more for your $ in SV) [/quote]

Wesley Heights, yes. SV, no.  Mustard gas (google it) and can't walk to much unless you are close to Mass Ave.  And there isn't much to walk to even then.[/quote]
Can't walk to much at all and talk about a homogenous neighborhood. It's like a suburb transplanted into the edge of the city.

I'd suggest Dupont or maybe Kalorama. For a while I had the communte to georgetown and lived first in dupont and then in kalorama. Would generally walk or bike. People on this board seem to hate dupont, but we found it to have everything we loved and more. If you live there you'll get to know neightbors, have events in parks, walk to little hidden gens of restaurants but still close enought to downtown or logan for going out to maybe trendier places. We initially met tons of neighbors through walking our dog/dog parks and then later when our kids were young through playgrounds, etc.

One thing that  good friend who moved from san fran underestimated were the benefits of a covered parking space. We don't get a lot of snow/ice here, but when we do if you need to get your car, it's pretty nice to have it inside so it's all clean. Minor but it drove my friend crazy[/quote]
