[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Takoma Park is nice but more of what I see as east coasters perspective of what the west coast is like. [/quote] You think Takoma Park needs to be explained as how East Coasters imagine the West Coast? I don't see how that enters into the TP gestalt. I don't think most people in DC think about the West Coast that much, and the interested parts are well north of LA. OP, are you looking for crunchiness or trendiness? I realize there's overlap, but the neighborhoods that are suitable for epidsodes of When Granolans Breed aren't going to be as hip as the lands of the young and the single. [b]Add to that DC's[/b] [b]general staid-ness, and you really need to pick which matters more[/b]: farmer's markets or cutting-edge bands. I'm guessing the former because of your mention of parking spaces (for your Prius? Your Subaru?), but maybe I'm misreading your post. [/quote] +100. OP your list is too evolve and too fancy for us in the DC area. You've got to compromise on some of your wants. That is why I think Columbia Pike would be perfect for you, it doesn't have the aesthetic you're looking for but has the vibe. Plus good schools, excellent county services - lots of recs stuff, multiethnic environment. You'll have a front row seat to the revitalization that is going on there right now. But it isn't quaint at the moment. I live in North-Arl, I wouldn't even suggest my hood, this board would pin me to hell. [/quote]
