Greenbelt Living
 Greenbelt enjoys a rich and diverse historic and cultural heritage. Its regional village centers, with thriving local businesses, offer residents a unique shopping experience without having to travel outside the city. However, if big city lights are what you crave, Washington, D.C., is less than a 15 minute drive to the west, Baltimore is less than an hour’s drive to the north, and Annapolis is merely minutes away to the east.
Sports Residents get to root and cheer in person for a variety of professional sports teams in some of the area’s newest arenas and stadiums. Basketball’s Washington Wizards play in the Verizon Center while football’s Washington Redskins play in FedEx Field. The Washington Nationals baseball team plays in the newly built Nationals Park. And we can’t forget baseball’s Baltimore Orioles or football’s Baltimore Ravens! Camden Yards and M & T Stadium are both located in strategically designed downtown cultural centers with first class shopping, dining and alternative entertainment as an extension of the athletic sporting events one may attend. Recreation If one feels at home on the water, then spending the afternoon kayaking on the Chesapeake Bay or relaxing on a sailboat is an exhilarating experience. All this can be made possible by setting sail from any dock out of Annapolis, the sailing capital of the world. For those who prefer to keep their feet dry, a visit to one of many museums to learn about local maritime or to an art gallery to view famous paintings, ceramics and silver created by artists with Maryland roots is a pleasurable substitute. No matter how people decide to spend their day, sooner or later they are bound to dine in one of several famous waterfront restaurants, which offer some of the finest seafood the world has to offer. Schools Residents of Greenbelt are introduced to a tremendous portion of our nation’s history, lending to an educational growth for people of all ages. This awakening has a profound impact on the city’s school system and on the students it serves to educate. Providing quality instruction in a safe, clean learning environment is a priority to local lawmakers. Efforts to constantly improve their educational system is evident not only in public schools, but in the many independent and private institutions situated throughout the greater Greenbelt area. Universities and Colleges Continuing education beyond high school is made easy for Greenbelt residents who have access to more than seventy colleges and universities in nearby communities and large cities. Three of the more prestigious universities in the world are located within forty minutes of Greenbelt while the University of Maryland stands less than ten minutes away. The first is Johns Hopkins University and Hospital in Baltimore. The second is the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis. The third is Georgetown University, nestled in the center of our nation’s capital. Local Economy Greenbelt is a blossoming community whose economy is based on agriculture, technology, and education. The occupation of a majority of the ever-growing population is similar to those in surrounding cities. These occupations mainly include managerial, executive, administrative and professional specialty. Employment opportunities range from industrial, to agricultural and political. |
