North Potomac Reviews

Write a review about North Potomac Tell people what you like or don't like about North Potomac…
North Potomac, a quiet town 5 rating By matthew__ ( Aug 10, 2015) North Potomac is known throughout the country for its safety and schools! It's an amazing place to live, especially if you are thinking of moving to the D.C. area! Neighborhoods nestled behind trees, some might cost a fortune, but big or small, all houses and properties in North ...Read More Potomac will still grant you access to the amazing community many call home. North Potomac isn't a place where you would find homeless people begging for money on the curb. It's a place with many families, and young adults out of college. Rarely is there any crime. It's probably one of the calmest towns in America too, because the only bad thing that's ever happened in North Potomac was a garage fire. It's not a place where you have to worry about your kids alone, because they will ALWAYS be safe. Read Less
