Parenting magazine names D.C. 'best city for families'
June 14, 2011 - 06:22 pm
Of all the things to name D.C., the best city to raise a family isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. But, Parenting magazine seems to think otherwise and has good reason.

The magazine’s July issue assesses every aspect of the District including schools, housing, crime, employment, registered sex offenders, recreational activities, health care, commuting, child care and air quality.
The conclusion?
The magazine says “The history, the government, the breathtaking architecture and inspiring monuments — you don’t have to be a child to get an amazing education in this city. Our nation’s capital is also known for its plenitude of museums, in fact, there are 44, second only to the Big Apple!"
