[quote=Anonymous][quote]I think of it like this. When I was young the only places that were safe and interesting we're largely around Georgetown or DuPoint. Decades later places like Logan, Shaw, and even Petworth seem like better choices. If the metro area had a center of mass, it would have shifted eastward over the past two decades. Perhaps, it's hard for people to see this when they're in the middle of it, but it is, in fact, happening even in moco. With the skyrocketing costs of real estate, people are looking for better values and this often makes areas that you wouldn't have considered a decade ago a viable choice.[/quote] Except that the reverse can also happen which is what is going on in Montgomery County. Wheaton and Silver Spring used to more middle class and while the school performance was never in the league of WJ or BCC it wasn't as bad as it is now. There has been a real drop in performance over the past 20 years in the eastern side of the county. [/quote]
