So then why would they go to PG County where these characteristics are least developed?

Because the places in question (that should have been explicitly mentioned in the WaPo article) are full of walkable historic streetcar suburbs (Mount Rainier, Hyattsville, built 1890s-1930s) and other developments (like Greenbelt (built 1930-1950)) like that. All with dense street grids, historic housing built around small commercial corridors. We are not talking about Mitchellville and Suitland here, but the historic inner core which was built at the same time as many of DC's streetcar 'suburbs' like Cleveland Park and Brookland.
