That is a little strange that they would have Frederick lumped with DC Metro area. I grew up in PG, moved to Carroll and work in Frederick. Still a lot of good ole boys in Frederick County but the cancer is spreading.

if any county other than MoCo and PG were to be considered part of the Capital Region, I would have selected Howard. It seems to be much more in the DC orbit than Frederick County.
Ever sit on 270 at rush hour?

Most of Frederick is a world away from MoCo. It’s still a red county and the people are more like western MD people. I wish we could give Urbana to MoCo.

Indeed! And it was included in this short lived (but well-conceived!) political movement: https://freewesternmd.org/about/

Wow! Great link. Thanks.
Ah, no. There's a number of MDSers down here, and an IWLA range within 5 minutes. I also like to be able to order my ammo online vs the confusion our MDS friends in MoCo face from from some retailers.

Wonder why it ran out of steam. Maybe because Hogan was elected?

I thought Frederick County was part of the Capital Region because it is a "bedroom community" to Our Nation's Capital, and I am surprised Washington County is not part of the Capital Region now.

yeah, that's my guess too, which is a shame considering that it's not like the Maryland General Assembly all of the sudden became more in-line with the political leanings of Western Maryland. It's still a worthy cause, though I can't see it every happening, even if the momentum continued.

When I lived in Washington County before the turn of the century (funny to say that) it was just begging to be a bedroom community. Once you got past Frederick it was open roads. No not so much anymore. Especially everything East of 81
