[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived in a marginal neighborhood in DC for 15 years Did monthly street cleanups, attended all the ANC meetings, volunteered at for and clothing drives, taught esol on weekends. Happy to do it because I loved my neighbors, the restaurants and shopping, and frankly helped my property values skyrocket. Then had a kid and realized I don't want him to get caught in a random drive-by at the park. I want him to be with other kids who have warm clothes and full bellies. So I moved to CCMD. Not saying that's the best or only place to get that. Some of my neighbors are transplants in the same way. We spent 15-20 years in DC and our lives changed, and CCMD was a great place for us to go. We love our neighbors and the restricts and shopping is just as good or better.[/quote]

This is much more honest, although the "warm clothes and full bellies" thing is not what you really mean because as you point out, one does not need to move to CCMD for that. [/quote]

I mean high (er) average SES. I'm not white and an immigrant so I like being around people of color like me. CCMD has a good mix of racial and cultural diversity that I wanted for my kids. I'd even argue there's more cultural diversity than where i can't from in DC bc it's more international here[/quote]
