[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]geez!  she doesn't even have kids yet!  why not buy a house where she is happy now?  She could sell or rent it out later if she is in the minority of people that A) have children and B) can't find any decent school options in DC.[/quote]

I actually do not think there is data to support that this is a "minority" of parents that live outside school boundaries they consider acceptable.  Additionally, have you missed all the prior posts of parents frustrated with DC schools that have no options because they are underwater on their homes and have struck out in the lottery.  I think the OP can measure her own willingness to go with the risk of school issues v. comfort in buying in a known quantity, dealing with one or two years at "acceptable for PS3 and Pre-K" while you hope to do better in the lotteries would be a non-starter for me, other people have different levels of risk aversion.  This thread has provided plenty of input for OP to make an informed choice.[/quote]
