Patuxent River recreation and commuter access to D.C. and Baltimore
On the southern banks of the Patuxent River, Burtonsville was originally founded as a farming community in 1825. Today, the Montgomery County town holds onto its rural roots with several horse stables, hunting areas and fishing spots on the river. Burtonsville’s 10,000 residents enjoy these outdoorsy activities, which still keep them within daily travel distance to Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. “Burtonsville is totally geared toward commuters,” says Bonnie Gregorio, a Realtor with Re/Max Professionals who has sold several homes in the area. “It’s a less-than-30-mile drive to get to D.C. or Baltimore, and there’s a huge commuter lot.”
Homes found on cul-de-sacs with well manicured lawns are not uncommon in Burtonsville.

Homes sell faster than the national average in Burtonsville
Burtonsville’s oldest homes are ranch-style houses and split levels from the 1950s and ‘60s. New Traditional houses, Colonial Revivals and townhouses built between the 1990s and 2020s are also common. The median price of a townhouse here is about $410,000, while the median price of a single-family home is around $650,000. Both prices are higher than the national median. Houses here typically sell after around 28 days, which is faster than the national average. Burtonsville experiences all four seasons, with hot, humid summers and mild winters. Severe weather can cause the Patuxent River to overflow, so homeowners closest to the waterway may need flood insurance.
According to 2024 data from the Maryland Department of State Police, Montgomery County’s violent and property crime rates are lower than state figures.

Hiking, hunting and horseback riding around the Patuxent River
“All recreation here is centered around the Patuxent River,” Gregorio says. “There aren’t very many other parks in Burtonsville, so unless people are driving to Laurel, fishing and boating is what they’re doing.” The town’s portion of the Patuxent River is part of the T. Howard Duckett Watershed, a water source for the Washington Suburban Sanitary District. Swimming here is prohibited, but locals can still launch paddleboats, go fishing and hike or ride horses on the surrounding 6,000 acres of forestland. Some of the land is also reserved for bow hunting. The watershed has several public access points, and permits are required for all activities. Laurel, about 5 miles east, has small neighborhood parks with playgrounds. Several golf courses, like the 27-hole Northwest Golf Course, are within 10 miles of town.

The Burtonsville Park & Ride Lot makes commuting easy
At the center of town, the Burtonsville Park & Ride Lot has 500 spaces. Montgomery County and Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority buses at the lot and around Burtonsville offer rides to the Silver Spring train station, about 15 miles south. The station is along the Metro’s Red Line and the Maryland Area Regional Commuter’s Brunswick Line. Washington, D.C., is a 16-mile drive south on Columbia Pike and 16th Street Northwest. A 25-mile drive north on Interstate 95 reaches Baltimore. Depending on traffic, the drive to either city can take between 45 minutes and 2 hours, but Gregorio says driving to D.C. takes the longest. “Driving all the way to D.C. during rush hour can take forever from Burtonsville. That’s why so many people park in the commuter lot and then take the bus to the train station. The train is usually more consistent.”
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport are both less than 30 miles away. The University of Maryland Medical Center, less than 5 miles southeast, is the closest hospital.

Multiple religions are represented in town, with houses of worship ranging from Christian churches to Hindu temples.
At the end of September, Burtonsville Day celebrates the town’s anniversary. The day starts with a parade from the high school to the recreation center, where there’s a festival with food trucks, live music and carnival games in the parking lot.
