Chillum, Maryland, nestled in Prince George's County, offers apartments for rent with convenient access to Washington D.C. Located just outside the nation's capital, Chillum traces its history to 1763 when it was established as "Chillum Castle Manor," named after Chilham Castle in England. This established neighborhood provides renters with suburban living while maintaining easy access to the city, with regular bus service connecting to the Fort Totten and Hyattsville Crossing Metro stations.
The neighborhood features three recreation spaces: Chillum Community Park, Green Meadows Park, and Lane Manor Park, each offering different outdoor amenities. Residents enjoy easy access to major roads like New Hampshire Avenue and East West Highway for commuting into D.C. The surrounding areas of Hyattsville and Takoma Park expand options for shopping and entertainment. With rental prices typically lower than those found in the District, Chillum presents an attractive option for those seeking housing in the Washington metropolitan area.
