Rockville, Maryland

Rockville is the administrative center of Montgomery County, Maryland. It is part of the Baltimore/Washington metropolitan area. Together with neighboring Bethesda and Gaithersburg, Rockville contributes to the Technology Corridor. This area houses numerous software, biotech, and governmental institutions. There are also numerous shopping centers in this area.

Located in the Piedmont plateau region, this area is crossed by three creeks – Rock Creek, Cabin John Creek, and Watts Branch. Semi-nomadic populations of indiginous people lived in this region and passed through it from as early as 8000 BC. The population of indiginous people created a passage called the Sinequa Trail. 

In 1860, the village was incorporated by the Maryland General Assembly. In 1873, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad came into existence, connecting Rockville to Washington DC. Once this service began, trolly service operated for four decades. It continued to be a popular form of transportation until the increased popularity of the automobile. 

During the cold war, bomb shelters were built in the city. It was said that remaining in Rockville would be safer than evacuating should an attack be made on the capital. 

In the second half of the 20th century, Rockville was one of the first cities to undergo a government funded urban renewal program. This program saw the demolition of many original buildings in the business district.

​​Near areas such as Arlington, Reston, and Falls Church, Rockville is a wonderful place to work, live, or visit. With a rich history, proximity to all kinds of entertainment, and many cultural touchstones, this region is a diverse area with a strong economy and is filled with things to learn and experience. With cold weather in the winter and warm weather in the summer, this region experiences all four seasons throughout the year and draws visitors all year round.
