Community Links
For more than 200 years, the community has been central to life in Montgomery County. The communities and neighborhoods constantly work together to better themselves and each contributes to making Montgomery County a great place in which to live, work and play.
Every community in Montgomery County is unique, although many share similar characteristics. Bethesda, Silver Spring, Kensington and Wheaton hustle with busy downtown activity, while Olney, Poolesville, Darnestown and others offer small town charm in quiet rural settings. Rockville, the county seat, has a charming residential historic district that blends nicely into the growing business and retail district.
