I am not this poster but wow that comment was uninformed. Mount Rainier is literally a stone's throw from the District line, which in no way justifies that particular vulgar term. It's in PG county just east of the city.

I would bet that price is dated, or the house is so small it looks like it is for a midget.

It's close to 270 also (and...gasp...you can take the ICC to 270!).
Actually, Flower Valley is a great location to get all around the county using various non-highway options. Plus it's pretty close to both ends of the red line.

Pimmit Hills is not actually a bad choice. Its only criticism is that it's not pretty.
Other neighborhoods on this thread are also good choices. I actually loved the SS area, there are so many neat little corners.
