Located in Montgomery County
Germantown is the third largest city in Maryland
The city of Germantown traces its origins to the early 1800s when immigrants developed the area as a farming village. In 1891, the area was fully integrated as a rail town along the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, with the construction of Germantown Train Station. With a current population of a little over 92,000, Germantown has redefined the late 20th-century growth story of Montgomery County. It is located about 25 miles from Washington, D.C. The city has a family-friendly vibe that differs notably from the more established neighborhoods closer to the nation’s capital, dispensing with the familiar amenities like country clubs or private schools and instead hosting Maryland SoccerPlex and Butler’s Orchard.
