Gaithersburg, Maryland
Gaithersburg is located northwest of both Washington, D.C. and Rockville, Maryland and has a population of just under 58,000. It is a popular residential area for both those commuting into the D.C. area and for those who work in the many high technology companies located nearby. While Gaithersburg started out as a farming community, it is now mostly urban but has managed to maintain small town values. The central area of the town is very walkable, and with great mass transit available into the D.C., it would be possible to manage without a car. When searching for your Gaithersburg apartment, you may want to keep this in mind. The area around Gaithersburg, however, has many attractive recreational features and you will need a car to get to them.
Three Town Centers
Gaithersburg is a very diverse small town, and much of town life centers around the Olde Towne District which serves as both a shopping and entertainment area. Two other areas, Kentlands and Washingtonian also serve similar purposes which means that no matter where your Gaithersburg apartment is located, you are near the necessities. The area around Gaithersburg is a wealth of outdoor recreational opportunities from golf to boating to biking.
Singers and Steaks
In Gaithersburg, some of the best restaurants also double as the best bars and entertainment in town. The Flaming Pit is one such example. They serve up quite good steaks but the real draw are the singers and music. You never quite know what you'll get but it is always very good! The Rio Grande is everyone's favorite Mexican food and the Redrock Canyon Grill sucks you in with its smoky smell, and the food is excellent too. You'll find a number of good international cuisine places sprinkled around the town, and none are bound to be far from your Gaithersburg apartment.
Cold Beers and New Friends
There are any number of fun little bar/pub type places to be found. Start looking for your own personal Cheers type bar by stopping into the Dogfish Head Alehouse. The beers are cold and the people friendly. Also, Rooks Corner and JJ Muldoon's are well worth checking out. Outside of The Flaming Pit, the best entertainment around will be in Rockville or in D.C. and that's when mass transit comes in very handy!
