Largo has grown in the last couple decades, and many residents commute
The suburban subdivisions and sleek shopping centers of Largo were developed in the mid-1990s, and since the opening of the Downtown Largo Metro Station in 2004, the community has seen continuous growth, both in development and population. "There’s a lot to do in the area," says Debbie Berger, a Realtor with Century 21 Millennium who has six years of real estate experience in the Greater D.C. region. “It’s a great central location in the Maryland area, with easy access to the main beltways." Bordered by the Capitol Beltway, which loops around the D.C., Maryland and Virginia region, Largo is also right beside Prince George’s County Community College, two malls and Northwest Stadium, home to big-name concerts and the NFL's Washington Commanders.
According to the census, Largo’s population in 2020 was around 11,600, a 38% increase from 2000, when the area’s major developments were underway. Largo shares a zip code with Upper Marlboro, which is the county seat, and the community hosts several county government offices, making for an easy commute to these employers. Many locals also live in Largo and commute to federal employers in Washington, D.C., or to biotech jobs in neighboring Montgomery County, while Northern Virginia hosts the East Coast's largest collection of data centers for IT and tech workers.

Locals explore Watkins Regional Park or hike at Southwest Branch Stream Valley Park
Southwest Branch Stream Valley Park offers a scenic outdoor experience where wooded trails stretch past a small branch of the churning Patuxent River. Although this park is in the neighborhood, Berger notes that most people head to Watkins Regional Park in Kettering to get outside. It's great for families, with two playgrounds, one with a farm motif and one "Wizard of Oz"-themed. Kids can also ride a mini train throughout the park while families and first dates play mini golf on an 18-hole course. The Chesapeake Carousel, built at the turn of the century and operating at Chesapeake Beach until 1972, still spins riders around and around. The carousel is wheelchair accessible and open seasonally. There’s also the Old Maryland Farm, where visitors can look at animals on display; it offers insights into Prince George’s County’s agricultural history. Largo gets four distinct seasons, with balmy summers and mild winters.
Just 4 miles north of Largo is Northwest Stadium, home turf for the Washington Commanders since 1997. Games are well attended in the fall and winter, and folks from all around the DMV come out to tailgate. The stadium seats over 67,000 people and serves as a venue for nationally touring artists, from Metallica and AC/DC to Beyonce, Post Malone and Kendrick Lamar.

Many commuting options in Largo
Commuters can take U.S. Route 50 to reach the nation’s capital after a 17-mile drive west, while Annapolis is a 27-mile drive east on the same thoroughfare. The Capitol Beltway loops around the DMV region and borders Largo to the west, allowing for convenient access. “The neighborhood’s location near the Commanders’ stadium definitely increases traffic during game days, but there are multiple exits to get there," Berger notes. "They’ve tried to make it manageable.” When it’s time to fly domestically or internationally, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is about 20 miles west. The Downtown Largo Metro Station is a mile north of town, offering access to Silver and Blue Line trains through D.C., Maryland and Virginia. Largo is also served by regional WMATA Metrobuses and Prince George's County’s TheBus down main roads like Harry S. Truman Drive and Largo Road.

Single-family homes, condos and brand-new townhouses
Largo’s residential streets are wide and walkable. Some subdivisions have sidewalks and two-lane, yellow-lined roads. But all streets in Largo maintain the same mature tree canopy. “They’re building some new homes in the area due to low inventory,” Berger explains, adding that "investors are looking to revamp properties, while first-time homebuyers want something that’s move-in ready.” Colonial Revival, split-level and ranch-style properties from the 1970s and 1980s typically cost between $500,000 and $750,000. New builds mainly consist of Craftsman-style townhouses, which run from $500,000 to $650,000 and offer three to four bedrooms. Condos are also available in Largo, and these units typically cost between $180,000 and $230,000. Recent crime statistics for Largo are not readily available.
