About the Village
The municipality of Chevy Chase Village is acknowledged by many to be one of the premiere residential communities in the Washington Metropolitan area. Walking along its beautiful tree-lined streets, one forgets that the Village borders the Nation's Capital at Western Avenue.
Chevy Chase Village has a proud history of effective local government. In the early 1950s, it became one of the first incorporated municipalities in Montgomery County, Maryland. Prior to that time, it was a Special Tax District. The municipality is also one of the first to utilize the Manager/Council form of local government.
