My parents and aunts and uncles think we are nuts. After years of bopping around due to my husband’s medical training, we are finally ready to choose the place where we want to settle down. And we picked one of the most expensive cities in the U.S.: Washington, D.C.
They’re right. We are crazy to choose a place where houses cost four times as much as they do in places like Syracuse, where we live now. I mean, we could get a stately house here in a charming, walkable suburb with excellent schools for $300,000. We can’t even touch a cramped apartment for that amount in Washington.
So why are we doing it? More at Parentables...
