[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. I’m not committed to staying in Virginia, but it’s interesting to me that so many people here are trying to problem-solve for me to stay in Virginia. I think the other people posting are pretty committed to me staying in Virginia! I actually agree with poster who said it’s hard to be the least wealthy person at a rich school. It’s hard if you don’t have the clothes and the same birthday parties and take the same trips and go to the same camps and have the same toys. I don’t want her to always feel “less than.” I actually prefer a more diverse school for that reason. [/quote] I would definitely set alerts for 20895. The parts of Kensington zoned for Oakland Terrace or Rock View are really great and some of the last neighborhoods that close-in where you can get a SFH that does not need a ton of work for under $700k. I don’t know how old your child is but the HS, Einstein, is currently overcrowded but is due to get some relief from that in 2027 when a new HS opens in North Bethesda/Rockville. It’s also part of the DCC which allows for some HS choice depending on your child’s academic interests and strengths. The neighborhoods are walkable to old town Kensington and the MARC station and it’s super easy to access Bethesda, Rockville and Silver Spring. We no longer live there but I recommend it every time someone is looking for a SFH close-in with a budget like yours. [/quote]
