[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I live in PG and absolutely love it (NT kid is in a public magnet), but have to advise against it if your child has an IEP and and autism diagnosis.

I do have a couple of dear friends in Howard County who have great things to say about the schools there. [/quote]
Grew up in PG and would absolutely not recommend it. Terrible schools for one. Secondly, it's not very diverse unless you consider mostly AA with a sprinkling of low income whites and a small filipino enclave as diverse. [/quote]

Howard County is NOT diverse.  It has just as many white people as PG County has black people.  Living in a mostly white county does not make it diverse.  Also I think Howard County is to far from Bethesda.  It's a bit country also but some people like that. [/quote]

Hey, hey.  I'm AA from Howard County.  Columbia is VERY diverse.  Western Howard County (where I'm from) is not as diverse, but you would be surprised at how diverse it has become.[/quote]

So which areas in Howard County would you recommend? Columbia, but anywhere else?[/quote]

I'd recommend Fulton, North Laurel, Columbia. Ellicott City is great but the commute down to Bethesda would be long. Fulton/Maple Lawn is also walking distance to Cedar Lane, which is an education center in Howard County. I live in Maple Lawn and it's diverse. You can check the stats for the local schools- Reservoir, Lime Kiln and Fulton. [/quote]
