"DC-Area gem neighborhood"

Spouse stationed at Ft. Meade, I would be working in DC., so we decided to split the commute & live in Silver Spring. Silver Spring is great, as you have a reverse-commute for Ft. Meade (meaning you're going opposite of heavy traffic both in morning & evening). Also - easy access to Red Line metro stop (Silver Spring).

We were fortunate to find a home on the edge of the White Oak & Hillandale neighborhoods.

Great area, strong schools in Montgomery County.

Big pluses: FDA Center is expanding which will pull in more jobs & more people, and there is a large Master Planned Community for White Oak. Strong market drivers are keeping real estate strong, & homes appreciating.

Very easy to get into downtown DC, via metro, so you can experience the best of both worlds: 'quieter' smaller neighborhood but easy to get into the city.
