Suburban living in Temple Hills
Tucked away among the winding, tree-lined roads of D.C.'s suburbs is the active community of Temple Hills. 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.

Hula hooping classes at the Temple Hills Community Center
To spend time outdoors, head southside and take a brisk walk on the Henson Creek Park trail.
