Islam - 10/10/2008
I used your website for a paper that I am writing on Frederick County and was sad to see that since it was updated on 10/7/08 that the % of people that participate in the islamic religion is 0%. How sad to think that we are so narrowed minded when Frederick County has one of the largest islamic communities with a mosque for prayer that was purchased 3 years ago.

frederick is a dump. - 9/25/2008
frederick is overcrowded, overpriced, and seems for lack of a better term a redneck attempt at a dc subburb. it doesnt really seem like a city allow so many think that it is. jobs are ok, but only if you commute to frederick as they dont pay enough to afford the housing. there is also no flow to how things are placed in frederick and its just like a massive cluster of old crusty town and new all thrown together and passed off as culture and smart growth. when is actuality it lacks anything to set it apart from any other town near dc. I would recommend hagerstown, md if you wanna live in Maryland. Its always has more a city feel and is experience rapid growth and has more shopping and dinning than frederick. and is more convienient to pa, nova and WV. plus hagerstown has a more impressive downtown that feels more like a city. and the housing in hagerstown costs about half of what frederick's is. And hagerstown is only 16 miles west of frederick on I-70 or rt.
