[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PPs who think Georgetown is overrated are jealous. I worked in Georgetown for almost a year and LOVED it. [/quote]

+1. I lived there for 4 years and it was fantastic...and quiet on the East side near Dupont.  I plan to move back to my house once kids finish public school in NoVa.[/quote]

I promise that I am not jealous. I really don't get what is so great about it. More power to you if you do. Different strokes. However, it oddly childish that people think other preferences are disguised jealousy. I love certain parts of DC, but not Georgetown. [/quote]

I loved my walks all over that neighborhood.  Gorgeous.  I loved Montrose Park and the trails behind it.  I loved the little shops in the neighborhood--not the big ones on M&Wisconsin.  I loved the European feel---and that most of my neighbors were, in fact, European.  I loved the Farmer's Markets.  In Fall and Spring the place is absolutely gorgeous.  The upper East Village was quieter than my current NoVa neighborhood.  There was an energy there.  We were married, kids were born and baptized all within 2 blocks. I miss Baked&Wired and my runs along the Canal or walking through Rock Creek to the Zoo with my kids.  They loved the little rowboats on the canal and all of the ice cream shops.  We often biked by the Kennedy Center to the Mall.

I am not a person that said anyone was jealous, btw.  That was a different poster.  We all have different preferences.  I lived abroad for 3 years--Barcelona and Munich and for some reaon this place felt the most European in the DC area to me.[/quote]
