Arlington schools are terrible except for this zip. Which is Still not better than Marshall. Bethesda schools would be slightly better. Arlington development has been overshadowed by mosaic and Bethesda.

Or churchill or WJ, or even Wooton, RM, Blair, or 1/2 of the other MoCo high schools.
If you were really from MoCo, you'd know it's Wootton, not Wooton.

I'm pretty sure this poster is someone in Fairfax who's had it out for Arlington ever since some twit in Clarendon went really hard on Pimmit Hills/Tysons/Mosaic District months ago.
It is what it is (two more days left before the 2014 embargo kicks in), but it shows how rude comments on DCUM can have a really long tail.
What are you talking about. There are much better school options in MCPS especially in Bethesda when to compared to Arlington.
There are good schools in Arlington but they are not across the board.
What does this have to do with the other places.
Touching a raw nerve, I see.

A discussion necessarily involves back and forth; let's keep it civil.

There are other Bethesda locations that are much closer to GTown than 20814. I live right off MacArthur Ave just over the MD/DC line (20816) and it's a straight shot down MacArthur/Foxhall to Georgetown. Whitman cluster if that matters to you.

Why only 20814 in Bethesda, and not 20816 or 20817?
Anyway, we live in 20817 but 2 blocks away from where 20814 starts. It takes DW about 20 minutes to commute from here to the edge of Glover Park, just a few blocks from GU campus. She takes Mass Ave to Wisconsin Avenue usually, though you an also do Macarthur Blvd/Reservoir Road and sometimes that's faster.
For 20814, the HS is either Whitman or BCC depending on where in 20814 you are.. or maybe the edge of it by 270 is Walter Johnson?

20814 is great! If you like traffic move to Arlington. BTW my commute to GU Hospital in rush is 20 mins from downtown Bethesda.

20814 also includes Edgemoor -- a great neighborhood where you can walk to all the stores and restaurants in Bethesda, as well as the Metro, library and movie theatres. There's also the Edgemoor club with pool and tennis. Commute to GU is pretty easy -- Little Falls to Mass, then cut through Glover Park to avoid Wisconsin. A teardown is about $1M. Note that MS and HS boundaries may chance with the construction of the new MS, but Bethesda ES will remain the in-boundary school.
Edgemoor is an outlier within Bethesda 20814...pooks hill is real
Edgemoor and East Bethesda look pretty real to me. Are you saying they're Potemkin villages? Fascinating.
Nope. Saying they are in the top 1 percent of that zip code in terms of cost. Doofus.
Where's your evidence for this statement? And, BTW, you're very rude.
Doofus ain't so bad.
My source is the census map posted above.
Your source is the census explorer? Have you really looked at it? There simply is no way you can look at it and think that Edgemoor and East Bethesda only represent 1% of the zip code, even leaving aside that it doesn't show housing costs.
I have looked at it. And the differences in income over certain tracts within that zip code are startling. Do not forget that a small patch of downtown Bethesda may have 25 times the number of residents per square mile as another.
