Named after Dr. Edward Temple, who settled in the area in the 19th century, Temple Hills has become an attractive area for those in search of a single-family home. "It’s one of the affordable Maryland cities that puts you in close proximity to the D.C. area," says local Realtor Keith Jackson of KJAX Group.
