To be fair, hasn’t Langley park always been kinda shady? If I’m wrong please correct me.

I mean Sligo hills park, my sister lived there in 2001 and talked about lots of car break ins.

It was always wonderful. My neighborhood is next to downtown Bethesda (Montgomery County, MD), to the west. I can walk to all the Bethesda shops and restaurants, but live in a little bubble of leafy streets with sidewalks. My aunt built a house there before the metro stop existed. The original, small homes, have gradually been replaced by much larger houses, some gaudier than others, but the variety is interesting. The public schools are some of the best in the county.

I do not regret my decision to buy here.

Does "nicer" mean less dense, more trees and less traffic? Or does "nicer" mean more stores and restaurants?

DC version. Connecticut Avenue corridor from DuPont to Chevy Chase, no. Ditto U Street, Columbia Heights, and Petworth. Everywhere else, yes.

Wanted to see how everyone felt in VA, MD, and DC. I have a feeling there will be some interesting answers.
