Current Resident. A few years back when I moved from North Carolina to here I was shocked and almost moved back. It's fast paced and crowded in my opinion. Traffic in my area is a nightmare. Angry drivers always laying on the horn and cussing people off. Cost of living stupidly high. I have a 720SQ apartment for 2150 a month. In north carolina I had a 1400SQ 2 room apartment for 1400 a month for comparison. Everyone always looks upset up here. And my Ring neighborhood app says the area about 10 miles from me always has reports about theft and shooting. You also need to pay to park anywhere living up here. Even in my apartment complex there is a charge for parking and no other option available. Weather is not as cold as I thought it would be. It's actually warmer. Snow in the years I've lived here was minimal. And never sticks around. If you don't like big city living, Rockville isn't for you.
I really love Rockville. Rockville is close to everything, I can take the metro to dc anytime I want. There are so many restaurants that have different options of food from all over the world such as El Salvadoran food. There are also many activities you can do! Some of my favorites include going down town, to town center and checking out the shops. Rockville is also a very diverse and safe environment. The schools are also great! Schools such as Richard Montgomery, provide many programs for their students such as the IB program. I am a hispanic teenager and I feel safe everywhere I go.
Most of my experiences I found to be enjoyable in Rockville came from activities hosted in the Rockville town centre and fallsgrove shopping center. In the Rockville town centre you can find outdoor movies being hosted during the summer, concerts, as well as festivals! There is also an arrange of places you can eat at, including five guys and California tortilla! There is also a movie theater in Rockville town centre with the Rockville Metro Station (Red Line) right by it.
