Montgomery County is definitely the problem area. If you're street smart enough to make it through a football or basketball game here you're fine anywhere

What school in MoCo plays game in VA?

I’ve lived in PG and MoCo. You’ll be fine at the PG schools. Actually, I think PG handles crime a lot better than MoCo does, to be honest.

Dr. Wise High School is surburbia as it gets. Agreed not all PG is ghetto as a few think unfortunately.

You will be totally fine there. There are actually VERY affluent areas in PG. It’s not like most people think.

There are some areas (Kentland, suitland, Seat Pleasant areas) that are best to avoid at night though.

Upper Marlboro Dr. Wise


This is the Suitland PP. I would think Upper Marlboro is just as safe (if not safer) as Silver Spring, and my kids go to all MCPS football games. I wouldn’t worry.

Upper Malboro is safer and pg overall is not that bad except the Suitland, Bladensburg areas in the southeast.

PG county school football games are not nearly as dangerous as Montgomery county football games.

It’s a big county, OP. Which schools will be playing? And I gotta say…the only schools with safety concerns around football games have been in MoCo, not PG. I’m not sure I feel safe coming to your neighborhood!

Our high school football team is playing in PG county. Do the PG schools have the same amount of security at football games as MC? Should we expect some scrapping?
