[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In DC, there basically aren’t any grocery stores. If you have to drive 20 minutes to get groceries anyway, may as well do it in a burb where you can park without having an aneurysm.[/quote] This is untrue? Within a 20 minute walk or 5 minute bike ride from my house, there is a Whole Foods, a Giant, a Harris Teeter, and a Trader Joes. I could also drive to them all in less than 5 minutes (and they all have free parking in easily accessed underground lots). I live in the middle of the city. I don't love everything about city living but I've never heard this weird suburban myth about how there are no grocery stores here. Half of the cars parked at the stores I go to are from the burbs so I know some suburbanites know about them (and find them convenient for lunchtime or after work grocery shopping, apparently).[/quote]
