Suburban community near D.C.
Looking up, it's not unusual to catch a glimpse of Air Force One flying by Westphalia. Located right by Joint Base Andrews, where the United States president flies to and from, this Prince George’s County suburb offers a slower-paced lifestyle in a community of diverse housing developments in Upper Marlboro. “It’s a newer community that’s becoming very established,” says Realtor Tohmai Smith with RLAH Real Estate. “People are moving here because it’s a very peaceful area and much more affordable compared to D.C. and Virginia.”

Recreation at Westphalia Community Center
The neighborhood hub is centered around Westphalia Community Center, where locals come together for indoor and outdoor recreation. The center’s parkour-style playground is a hit for children, especially those who enjoy challenging obstacles. Parents can keep an eye on the kids while relaxing on a bench or strolling down the paved walkway that loops around the playground. The community center gym features a basketball court and offers several programs, such as boxing and fitness classes and summer camps. Mellwood Parke Park has similar amenities, such as basketball courts, playgrounds and trails, but in a more natural setting with mature woodlands.
With indoor and outdoor basketball courts, Westphalia is the place to show off your jump shot.

Bustling shopping centers in Forestville and small-town feel in Downtown Upper Marlboro
“There aren’t a whole lot of stores and restaurants directly in Westphalia,” says Smith, “But there are plenty of places nearby, which is a huge plus.” For shopping and dining out, locals typically head to neighboring Forestville on the west side of town, which can be a 1- to 7-mile drive, depending on where residents live. Shopping centers like Ritchie Station Marketplace feature big box retailers and a mix of national chain and local comfort food restaurants. Casablanca Café is a local favorite for classic breakfast dishes, whether for dine-in or carryout. Locals also love the rectangular, flaky pizza at Ledo’s, which has served the community since 1955. Downtown Upper Marlboro is also a 1- to 7-mile drive to the east side of town. It offers a more small-town feel with independent shops and restaurants on Main Street, including Olde Towne Inn, where locals enjoy casual American fare.
If you shop in bulk, BJ's wholesale is located in Ritchie Station Marketplace in Westphalia Md.

Getting to and around the D.C. metro
The neighborhood’s location is a good fit for D.C. commuters. Locals can take Suitland Parkway 17 miles west to the nation’s capital or hop on Interstate 495, which wraps around D.C. to cities such as Alexandria and Springfield. To avoid traffic, locals can drive 5 miles to the Downtown Largo Washington Metro subway station. Both the Silver and Blue lines take about 30 minutes to get to D.C.’s Metro station including a major connecting point, Metro Center. Metro riders need not change trains to reach Washington's two commercial airports, Ronald Reagan National and Dulles International.
Blue and Silver lines are both served at Largo Metro station.
