About Western Maryland

Western maryland is the portion of the u.s. State of maryland that typically consists of washington, allegany, and garrett counties. The region is bounded by the mason-dixon line to the north, preston county, west virginia to the west, and the potomac river to the south. The washington metropolitan area is generally considered to be its eastern border, though some organizations stretch the region further east. Western maryland is much more rural than the baltimore-washington metropolitan area, where most of the state’s population lives, and is noted for its mountainous terrain. The area is generally regarded as part of appalachia, with the extreme western section having more of an affinity to pittsburgh than the rest of the state. Washington, allegany, and garrett counties are part of the appalachian regional commission.
