La Plata, Maryland is a friendly, walkable small town with a historic downtown, local restaurants, breweries, parks and river access—an easy, low-stress base for multi-week assignments where you’ll find enough happening to unwind without feeling stuck.
A short drive brings you to Washington, D.C. for museums, nightlife and major transit, and to Annapolis/Chesapeake Bay for waterfront dining and boating, so weekends offer big-city or coastal options while you enjoy quieter small-town living during the week.
