+1. Saudi, Middle East money. You’re all being racist

But you're also stereotyping. There are plenty of others - mostly White and Asian - building and buying newer homes in McLean, Great Falls, and Potomac.

And they don't GAF that some don't like their houses, which is what bothers folks like OP. They want to be the arbiters of good taste, and for others to aspire to live in houses like theirs, and instead they are just ignored. It makes them feel irrelevant.

Those aren’t the houses OP mentioned. She is calling out the homes that Saudis build in McLean - that is an ethnic slur.

Lmao, “it makes them feel irrelevant”. Ma’am, are you okay?

"no where," lol. So you're illiterate on top of being too poor to afford these homes?

Imagine insulting someone for making a typo while typing on a phone keypad and thinking that you just did a big gotcha. Midwit energy.

I will agree that the Philly and Boston suburbs are nicer, but Bethesda is the closest that this area has to old money. It’s changing into McCraftsman and it’s a shame, but still a lot of beauty close in

Bethesda? Maybe once upon a time in certain pockets, but not anymore.

DMV Old money pockets are the following:

-Chevy Chase Village
-Kenwood
-Middleburg / The Plains / Upperville / Delaplane area
-and a few select places in Alexandria (some still in Belle Haven, some old money folks still by the water, some in old town)
