[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP who recommended the Palisades.  I'm from NY, and have lived in New Haven, Northampton and Brattleboro, and have family living in Cambridge, so lots of NE exposure.  I won't say that the Palisades is specifically like a NE small town, but it does offer the vibe of a small town, with a warm and welcoming community, with some of the conveniences of living in a town because it is walkable to many things, has a vibrant year-round farmer's market.

I also like the vibe in Brookmont, but it's not really walkable to retail.

If you are coming down to look at neighborhoods, I highly recommend you take a look at the Palisades. [/quote]

I am a transplanted New Englander who now lives in Arlington and I would agree with this.  While you are still in D.C., Palisades does have a small town vibe to it with single family homes, etc.  I also think that many neighborhoods in Arlington would also fit this bill - you won't get the true town feel like you get in New England, but certain neighborhoods in Arlington do have a good sense of community with potlucks, parades, farmers markets, etc.  I would also look at Falls Church City (22046).

And, go Sox! (sigh........)[/quote]
