[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, but your jumble of purported statistics is less than compelling. On the other hand, it's easy enough to look at the Census explorer tool and the NY mapping and see that other neighborhoods in 22043 (both the Haycock and Idylwood areas), 22041 and 22044 are all higher-income areas with higher median housing prices than Pimmit Hills or the small area in 22046 that feeds into Timber Lane. http://www.census.gov/censusexplorer/censusexplorer.html http://projects.nytimes.com/census/2010/explorer Even if values per SF are higher in Pimmit Hills than some of the other areas, so what? People in the other neighborhoods live in larger homes in more attractive neighborhoods. I'd pick them in a heartbeat over Pimmit Hills. [/quote] No one lives in PH for the beauty or for architecture, it wins on other criteria. Location, schools, parks, price, commute, amenities, did I say location? But if you want a uniformly beautiful, manicured neighborhood, then it is not PH. I live in PH and admit this freely. We didn't pick it for the looks. But we are very happy here. [/quote] Then why can't you just say it works for you? Instead, you and other PH boosters keep blabbing about how it "wins" and "beats" other parts of Falls Church that are far prettier and have equally good locations, at least if you work in DC. And the schools are not that much better than the schools in other parts of the county, unless you have an unhealthy obsession with GreatSchools. [/quote]
