Resident/Non-Resident Determinations

A resident is any person living in or owning property located within the corporate limits of the City of Rockville. The city limits are determined by taxing areas. Rockville residents pay Rockville City taxes in addition to Montgomery County taxes. Apartment renters within the corporate limits of the City of Rockville are also considered residents. Proof of residency is required in the form of a City of Rockville water bill, a driver’s license, a lease, a mortgage statement or a rental agreement.

A non-resident is any person who does not reside within the corporate limits of the City of Rockville. Although a mailing address may be “Rockville,” this does not necessarily qualify as a City of Rockville residence.

If you are uncertain whether you qualify as a City of Rockville resident, please call the Glenview Mansion to check the directory of city listings.
