Why Live in La Plata

La Plata, MD, is a Southern Maryland town with a close-knit community and commuter routes, located less than 40 miles south of Washington, D.C. As Charles County’s government center, La Plata has a rich history dating back to the late 1800s when it was a passenger train stop. Although a 2002 tornado destroyed many original buildings, the town has rebuilt and now features a quaint downtown district with historic structures like the Episcopal Christ Church. Housing options include ranch-style homes, Colonial Revivals, and New Traditional houses, with most homes built between the 1980s and 2020s. The median single-family home price is $475,000, which is lower than the D.C. metropolitan area’s median price. La Plata is safer than the national average, with lower violent and property crime rates compared to Maryland's overall figures. Commuters can drive to D.C. via U.S. Route 301 or take the VanGo bus, with Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport 36 miles away. The town offers various things to do, including nine parks with amenities like soccer fields, fishing docks, and RV camping spots. The Southern Maryland Blue Crabs minor league baseball team plays nearby, and several parks along the Potomac River are just 12 miles west. La Plata hosts community events like the annual La Plata Bed Races and a farmers market from April through November. The town is served by Charles County Public Schools, which are highly rated, and also has private school options and the College of Southern Maryland for higher education.
