2014 Map of Rockville

About this map

Rockville and Gaithersburg anchor this densely developed landscape of suburban Montgomery County as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map highlights a complex hydrography defined by man-made lakes such as Inspiration Lake and Lake Placid, alongside historical watercourses like Muddy Br and Cabin John Cr. While much of the area is subdivided into residential enclaves like Hungerford Towne and Potomac Woods, the southwestern corner preserves the dramatic natural topography of Great Falls and the recreational corridor of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park. Genealogists and local historians can locate several older burial sites, including the Union Armory Cem and Saint Marys Cem. The map also captures smaller communities with distinct local identities, such as Derwood and Beantown, positioned among the modern transit networks of the Maryland-Virginia borderlands.
