I love Potomac, I feel genuinely safe and comfortable here. Sometimes, the traffic is bad. Additionally, there have been so many fun new businesses within the past few years. It's amazing!
This review for part of Potomac called Avenel, Riverfalls etc. Beautiful homes. Nice trees. Nice cars. What is missing is good people.
I am not white skin, I am reminded every day that I am not deserving of living here. Does not feel like home here......feels very artificial.

Safe and comfortable place to live. Only downside is lack of accessible public transportation. Great school district and very safe! A lot of public parks to take children as well.
