    Residing in the community of Cheverly, MD, I have witnessed so much togetherness. The neighbors look out for each other as well as for the children of the community. It is refreshing to see a wide range of families of different nationalities and religions speak to one another as well as participate in organizing community activities. The neighbors truly stick together as a family unit. The local police officers of Cheverly are very attentive and look after the community at all times.

    I was born and raised in Cheverly and found it to be a wonderful place to live. My two best friends, whom I've known since babies on pacifiers also grew up in Cheverly. The neighborhood is beautiful and the neighbors are very friendly and caring. Two of my neighbors actually wrote recommendations for me when I went to college. Every year the neighborhood gets together for various occasions such as Cheverly Day, the Thanksgiving Turkey Run and Christmas Celebrations. We also have an American Legion where many of the Cheverly neighbors meet. There are a number of churches and places to worship and fellowship. The town is well-maintained and very accessible to malls, recreation and tourist attractions. I can't think of a better place to grow up. Cheverly will always be a wonderful place to live to me, my family and my friends.
    Low crime rate area. Prompt police response and family oriented. Don’t believe whatever negativity is said about this town, it’s truly a great place to live.
