[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those are two very different communities and your housing budget would place you in very different social places - you’d be rich at Chantilly and poor at Langley. What are your other priorities?[/quote] I hear you. May be that’s the reason I want to move to GF. We are an Asian couple and part of me wants to transition to that social strata. DH is afraid to make that transition. I want kids to have that taste of a different social circle. My personal belief is that you become what group you are part of. We combined make around 275K and I am sure we would be in lower spectrum at Langley. Please enlighten or correct me if my way of thinking is wrong. Is there a different lens I should be looking through as well?[/quote] NP. I am an Asian and completely understand where you’re coming from. Before choosing Langley, you will have to carefully consider whether your kids will fit in (not only academically but also socially). If they don’t fit in, what’s the point? We make $250k and didn’t even consider Langley. Honestly, if we had bought an $1 million plus house in Langley, I don’t know how we can afford other activities and travels that other Langley kids take as granted. For $275k income level, many other Asian families settle for Chantilly, Oakton, or Marshall. Look into the western side of Oakton boundary. [/quote]
