Welcome to Rockville!

Dear New Rockville Resident,
Estimado nuevo residente de Rockville

On behalf of the Rockville City Council, we would like to welcome you to the community.

If you’re not familiar already with the City of Rockville, there’s a lot our community has to offer. Here are a few quick facts about Rockville:

  • Rockville has more than 60,000 residents, across approximately 20,000 households.
  • Our community is one of the most diverse and international in the world, with more than one-third of our residents having been born outside the United States, coming from virtually every country in the world.
  • Our city is an economic engine with nearly 80,000 jobs within our border. Our city’s jobs-to-households ratio of nearly 4:1 is unrivaled in the region.
  • Rockville has a rich history going back over 250 years. Rockville was named as the seat of Montgomery County in 1776.

Another distinguishing feature of our community is the city government, which continues to strive to make Rockville one of the nation’s very best places to live and work. Along this line, we were especially pleased that Money Magazine ranked Rockville No. 66 in its 2008 list of “Best Places to Live in the United States.”

One aspect of life in Rockville that we are proud of is the wide range of cultural and recreational opportunities available in our community. This tradition continues in Rockville’s Town Center downtown, with a number of exciting events that are hosted there that will run from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

To help you learn more about Rockville, we’ve provided the links on this web page to some of the information that’s available on the city government’s Web site.

If ever you have a question, suggestion or concern, please do not hesitate to contact us or others in the city government. A good point of contact is our City Manager Scott Ullery, who can be reached at 240-314-8100 and sullery@rockvillemd.gov.

Again, welcome to the City of Rockville. Thanks for making our community your home.

Sincerely,

Mayor Phyllis Marcuccio
Councilmember John Britton
