Money, a widely recognized brand in personal finance that was founded in 1972 as Money Magazine, and guides readers decisions about investing, saving, and purchasing, has released its 2022 ‘50 Best Places to Live’ list. The City of Rockville is the only area in Montgomery County to make the list, coming in 20th. Nearby Columbia received the #6 ranking on the list.
Per the article:
Rockville, a diverse city according to Money’s data, is business friendly and home to some of the most prominent biomedical and technology companies that call here home. And if you want to head to the nation’s capital, it’s an easy trip from Rockville: The town is 15 miles north of Washington, D.C, which the area’s interstate access makes for a short drive. You can also take a train to D.C. — Rockville is right on the Metro’s red line.
There’s also plenty to do outside in Rockville itself. Rockville’s downtown is super walkable, and has lots of good dining and shopping options. Locals also like to explore Croydon Creek Nature Center, an urban wildlife sanctuary on 120 acres of forest preserve. The Cabin John Regional Park, for its part, has an ice skating rink, Tai Chi court and dog park.
