A small to medium sized community just south of Annapolis. The area has experienced an explosion of architecturally poor development along Route 2 (itâs main road) and Mayo road. However, when you get into the neighborhoods along the water it is quite lovely.
Thereâs a weird tension between the waterbilly residents who have lived in Edgewater for generations that hate outsiders and any kind of development at all, and the lawyers/doctors from the D.C metro area that want to see it turn into a Montgomery county looking hellscape.
Other than that, itâs a typical suburban Maryland town. The accent of your typical Edgewater thoroughbred local is more connected to a caucasian Bowie/P.G county type accent than a Baltimore accent, but it does retain elements of both (Governor Hogan is a great example). This is caused by the fact that it is situated right on the gray line for D.C or Baltimore loyalty.
One last thing is Edgewater has an incredible amount of weed. A rite of passage for any South River Highschool student is having tried weed for the first time at Bass Pond or the K-mart parking lot.
âIf you think you can out fish Mason, youâre wrong. Heâs from Edgewater and just injected 200 grams of raw unadulterated THCâ
âIâm thinking about buying a house in Woodland Beach instead of Annapolis but iâm afraid of the Edgewater stigmaâ
