As a Real Estate Agent, who has been in MOCO my entire life, it’s strictly because of how much more expensive MOCO has been come to live in. Not even the outside shopping aspect but in particular the living aspect.

I would love to have a child, but it would be so irresponsible. It’s expensive as hell. I would not like to suffer any further.

It’s a domino effect from low birth rate and affordability. The classes have looked smaller in 0-5 childcare too.

MOCO is too expensive. 1 bdrm apts are 1800+ a month. People are moving into Howard and Frederick County faster than ever.

Rent is 2k for one bedroom food is expensive fast food increasing daycares want 1k a month minimum still low nobody wants to hire you the best decision is not having kids schools have all these off days but don’t consider parents work schedules

It’s 100% the price of the homes in MoCo. No one can afford to move here. And those who can go to private schools. Saw a realtor who was advertising a 2 bedroom 1 bath house for 1.5 million in Rockville. It’s just not possible.

I have had classes over 32 every single year for the past 4 years. Doing anything that will increase class sizes is INSANE!
