[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I was not referring to PH, I was referring to McLean. But now you have me convinced it is indeed both. :) [/quote] No, I'm not one of your mythological older McLean residents freaking out about their property taxes, either. I just know the housing mix in Pimmit Hills, McLean and Vienna is quite different. You can drive through the neighborhoods, and look at ACS data, and the differences are quite obvious. It is what it is. I[b]f being squarely in the middle mattered that much[/b], they could have taken their money elsewhere and bought larger houses with longer commutes, lower-rated schools, etc. [/quote] Explain.[/quote] It's important to some PH residents to assert that the housing there is similar to housing in much of, or most of, McLean or Vienna. It isn't. It's still, for the most part, smaller and less expensive. But it's not a poor area by any stretch, and those folks could easily live in another area where the surrounding neighborhoods would, indeed, be quite similar to theirs. They chose to live in a more affordable part of one of the most expensive parts of the DC region. [/quote] If you compare the county's rating of "construction quality" for both placed you will see similarities. Of course there are mansions in McLean with Average construction. I think you are thinking of how a home presents-outward appearance, landscaping, re-models, fancy smancy counters, which is different from the quality of construction.[/quote]
