The information about the boundaries is incorrect, if you search the DC Atlas [1] for Real Property and Assessment Neighborhoods you will find the correct boundaries as defined by the city. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.108.255.234 (talk) 12:56, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

It's true that, for real estate assessment purposes, Brightwood extends significantly further than the definition currently used by the Brightwood Community Association. A house in the 900 block of Hemlock Street is considered part of Brightwood for real estate assessment purposes, for example, when that area is considered Takoma by many (most?) other agencies and people. It all comes down to who is making the distinction. Quacks Like a Duck (talk) 17:13, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
