[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is the 5th largest city in the US but it’s not dense like NYC. It’s filled with highly educated people with elite and high paying jobs. That’s the demographic in the $2M range. [/quote]

Thank you for this! That's what I'm gathering and there are definitely varying opinions on how people feel/experience that.[/quote]

Hi there! We work in similar fields and had a similar set of preferences as you. I’d stick with NWDC and look for the best house you can find in Chevy Chase DC, anywhere down Wisconsin (Glover Park, Georgetown etc) or zoned for Mann or Key. We live in Palisades and love it- it sort of feels like a small town within the city. Kids are super, super happy with school and have friends from all over the world. IMO it’s a great place to grow up. We personally are planning to stick with DCPS through middle/ high school if possible, but could do private if really necessary. The suburbs are ok, tbh I’m not a huge fan of the housing stock. Maybe in the more walkable areas of Bethesda or Arlington you’d be happy, but the houses get very expensive fast. Welcome! I think you’ll love it here![/quote]
