[quote=Anonymous]Hi op. Lots of really good advice already. I can only speak to the MD/NW side as we bought in Chevy chase MD, but I did grow up in Westchester and know what you are describing. Honestly, you are looking for a unicorn and you’ll have to decide what you can live with giving up. DC does have a different vibe than westchester but it is still very affluent, attending private school is a real thing, the county based schools can be very frustrating, and quite honestly, MD is really not convenient for day to day stuff: sports, grocery, stores, etc. Nothing is under a 20m drive and that gets tiring day in and day out. You may not like the small town feel of Westchester, but there are some really sweet perks to having kids grow up there. I really think you’d be trading a lot for not much of a difference in mentality. Definitely come visit and spend some time seeing if it’s the right place for you. Best of luck! [/quote]
