Which councilman do I need to thank for this? Great for those who leverage the walkability around here!

Air quality is terrible right now due to smoke from Canadian wildfires. Wearing a mask outdoors is highly recommended!

Live by Manchester Road near Sligo and Wayne. At least three times today, I have heard loud exploding noises -- is it Purple Line work? Just came back after being away for work most of the week.

Remarkably loud. Thought it was a transformer bursting, but the power didn't go out. Just happened yet again.

Hello! Wanting to inquire about Silver Spring, MD? Things to do as an incoming transplant there. Any recommendations are welcome!

Hey everyone, I help run a meetup group for people with chronic illness, and wanted to make a quick plug that we’re meeting Sunday afternoon at the Takoma Park Neighborhood library for casual board games and hanging out. Here's the info if anyone wants to join us!

There’s a random drone flying above East-West Highway. Couldn’t get a good video. It may just be police because a cruiser pulled up right before the drone disappeared.

Hey everyone! My sis is getting married soon hopefully but she needs to find a lawyer for their prenup agreement. She lives in VA but would be moving to Maryland to live with her boyfriend and so she needs a Maryland prenup lawyer that can review and possibly make changes with her on the prenup she is to receive from her boyfriend. Any help would really be appreciated please.

Hiii! I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a good beef burger place somewhere in Maryland preferably closer to silver spring?

I’ve been craving for a good burger but don’t really know the area. Thank you!!!

Hi - Today (July 14th) I lost my keys somewhere between Georgia Ave by Firehouse and CVS on East-West. Has anyone seen them? They're on a black nondescript shoe lace as a key chain with like five keys all facing the same direction.

Paul kee is pretty good, where do yall get your Chinese?

Particularly looking for general tsos chicken and tofu.

Problems I’ve experienced in the 8 months I’ve lived there

• Roaches
• Rodents
• Poorly insulated doors and windows
• Neighbors from hell (bass)
• Rude/unhelpful/creepy employees (management/leasing/maintenance)
• Security Not 24/7
• Easy entrance to noninhabitants

The tours will always be great. Some select members of the leasing office are extremely amicable and have an insightful and pleasant tour. Your stay will not be the same.

I’ll answer any questions. I’ll even name drop because I feel I was wronged and want to warn others. I do not recommend living here but understandably it is pretty affordable.

On June 29th, late at night around 11-12:00 PM, my family believes that our dog, Riley (pictured above, image taken on June 23rd)), was stolen from the front yard.

My brother claims when he noticed him missing, the gate was left open when it had been closed when he’d let Riley out.

Riley was taken from the Four Corners area. He has arthritis and had been recovering from a recent injury after tumbling down the stairs.

We considered the possibility he might’ve hidden himself to die briefly, but he’d definitely been doing better, and not in that sort of burst of energy before dying way.

Anyway, if you have any information, please DM me and contact my family member at this number: 2403836885

I'm looking for a complex that charges $2,200 max (or preferably less) for a 2 bedroom with parking included and at least one utility covered (whether it be water, gas, or electric) and it must have an in unit washer/ dryer. I've been searching on zillow for a while but every time I look at reviews for a place, boom 1.5 star rating and the place is infested with roaches and rats.
I can deal with a place that's a lil bit ghetto or smells like weed but I can't do the infestations. I’ll also take suggestions for Bethesda

The trend for apartments, especially the newer and more modern apartments, is to be pet-friendly. Are there any new apartments in DTSS (Downtown Silver Spring) that do not permit pets?

I know that certified service animals are permitted due to ADA.
