Takoma Park is a city in Montgomery County, Maryland. It is a suburb of Washington, D.C., and part of the Washington metropolitan area. Founded in 1883 and incorporated in 1890, Takoma Park, informally called "Azalea City", is a Tree City USA and a nuclear-free zone. A planned commuter suburb, it is situated along the Metropolitan Branch of the historic Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, just northeast of Washington, D.C., and it borders the neighborhood of Takoma, Washington, D.C. It is governed by an elected mayor and six elected councilmembers, who form the city council, and an appointed city manager, under a council-manager style of government. The city's population was 16,715 at the 2010 national census.
Since 2013, residents of Takoma Park can vote in municipal elections when they turn sixteen. It was the first city in the United States to extend voting rights to 16- and 17-year-olds in city elections. Since then, the City of Hyattsville has done the same.

It is very quiet, theirs a park for kids and very safety because the polices monitor.
On many occasions, I have witnessed residents of Takoma Park doing so many random acts of kindness such as helping elderly individuals with carting the groceries to their cars and assisting them with crossing the streets. The sidewalks are very accommodating for the aging population.
This area possesses nice walkability. There is access to bus and metro transport. There are also parks in and around my area.
