Crown East may be a highlight of Gaithersburg, but the city itself has much to offer.

Neighborhoods are warm and welcoming—so much so that they’re award-winning—and the school system is ranked among the best in the country.
Location
Crown East is located off Sam Eig Highway at Fields Road, which also gives you easy access to I-270 and Md. 200. But for days when you don’t feel like driving, there’s the option to walk to nearby Rio Washingtonian, or take the free shuttle to the Shady Grove Metro (plus, Crown is a planned stop on the future Corridor Cities Transitway). Even better? Quality restaurants, shops, and services can be found in Downtown Crown, the lively hub of the Crown community that ensures you won’t have to go far from home to find a little fun.

You can also take advantage of biking and walking trails throughout the community and let them lead you to one of the ten lush public parks that dot the landscape. Crown homeowners who love to entertain will enjoy the benefits of the community room, which is great for larger gatherings or welcome a smaller group to kick back around the warmth of the outdoor fireplace.
Crown’s streets and parks are named after some of the most creative and talented people in history, from Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck to Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimi Hendrix. The community even has two pieces of art listed in the City of Gaithersburg’s Art in Public Places program—Inner Being, a bronze sculpture that explores balance and movement, and Olmstead Park which combines landscape and hardscape to create an interactive and meditative space that celebrates innovators in literature, arts, science, and music.
