Innovation has set up shop
Riverdale Park’s origins can be traced back to the late 19th century when it was first developed as a D.C. streetcar suburb. Today, this community in Prince George’s County offers residents a range of homes, great parks, proximity to the University of Maryland College Park campus and a thriving arts scene. “This is an amazing town to live in,” says Realtor Karla Gutierrez with Long & Foster Real Estate Inc. Gutierrez grew up in nearby Mount Rainier and has been selling homes in the area since 2002. “The stores here are mom-and-pop places, breweries, or shops started by innovators attracted to the Arts District. Plus, D.C. is so close. Anyone can have the suburban lifestyle and enjoy city life, too.”

Town events and farmers market
The town of Riverdale Park hosts several events throughout the year that celebrate the community, such as National Night Out in August, which builds camaraderie between police and the community, or the Festival of Lights Contest, which recognizes families whose homes feature the best holiday light decorations. For fresh produce, flowers, baked goods and live music, residents visit the Riverdale Park Farmers Market, open every Thursdays starting at 3 p.m.
Homes as diverse as homeowners
Housing in Riverdale Park includes single-family homes, townhouses and condos that range in price from $300,000 to $1 million. Prospective buyers can choose from quaint cottages, bungalows, and ranch-style houses or opt for storybook Victorians, large colonials, or newly built farmhouses and Craftsman-style homes. “Every block is different from the next,” Gutierrez says. “The diversity of homes is only matched by the mix of people here. A younger crowd is attracted to the Arts District townhouses, but I see families moving out too to raise children.”

Maybe it’s a baseball or basketball game — the neighborhood has several at Riverdale Community Park and Riverside Neighborhood Park. Four-legged friends will enjoy a stop at the Waggertail Dog Park or a stroll along any trails that run through town, such as the Riverdale Trolley Trail. The youngest members of households often enjoy the Kaboom! Playground in Riverdale Park, and adults flock to the Town Center Market patio for its Summer Patio Concert Series. Around town, residents can also enjoy rotating, year-round sculptures as part of the town’s public art initiative.
