[quote=Anonymous]I'd cross the border to CC MD. Not the Village but the less pricey parts (also near the District) like Rock Creek Forest or Rollingwood The SFH architecture and streetscape aren't dramatically different from the standard upper NW streets (which are just a few blocks away), the BCC school district is vastly better, the residents are largely similar in mind-set, and the CC MD prices (at the lower levels) are actually inexplicably lower than for-like prices in Upper NW. And frankly those communities aren't markedly less "walkable" than much of Upper Northwest (try walking to the metro from Barnaby Woods, or from over by Westmoreland Circle). I'm assuming that as you state, you're looking for a comfortable SFH in a close-in, safe neighborhood with good schools. If you're fixated on 20015 and 20016 because you think that zip code confers some ineffable quality on its residents that individuals living across the street in other zip codes or jurisdictions can never possess, well, good luck to you. Sometimes I think Freud had DCUM in mind when he wrote about the narcissism of small differences... [/quote]
