    City Description

    Bowie (pronounced /ˈbuːi/) is a city in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The population was 50,269 at the 2000 census. Bowie has grown from a small railroad stop to the largest municipality in Prince George's County, and the fifth most populous city and third largest city by area in the State of Maryland. The city of Bowie owes its existence to the railway. In 1853, Col. William Duckett Bowie obtained a charter from the Maryland legislature to construct a rail line into Southern Maryland. In 1869 the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad Company began the construction of a railroad from Baltimore to Southern Maryland. The area had already been dotted with small farms and large tobacco plantations in an economy based on agriculture and slavery. In 1870 Ben Plumb, a land speculator and developer, sold building lots around the railroad junction and named the settlement Huntington City. By 1872, the line was completed, together with a spur to Washington DC. The remainder of the railroad through Southern Maryland and Pope's Creek was completed in 1873. Huntington City was re-named in honor of the son of William Duckett Bowie, Oden Bowie, who was President of the Baltimore &

    Which city is the better place to live Laurel or Bowie Maryland?
    Question:
    I am considering moving to one of the two cities to live. I do not have any kids, but I do have a large dog to consider. So any information about rentals, things to do, resturants, neighborhoods or anything at all would be greatly appreciated. Also if anyone has any opinions about near by cities or towns that are also nice I am open to suggestions. I will be working in Brentwood so I would like to keep my travel time under 30 minutes.


    Answer:
    I think both towns themselves are similar, so the major difference is that Laurel is closer to Baltimore Bowis is closer to Annapolis Both are equidistant from Washington. I would pick Bowie because Baltimore is such a large town that you are GOING to take some extra time to get in and out, so the extra drive from Bowie won't make that much difference. But if you want to bop into Annapolis for dinner, it's easy from Bowie, considerably longer from Laurel. Does that make sense?

    Are there any dirt bike tracks in bowie maryland?
    Question:
    Please answer, I have no where to ride yet so i can only get a dirt bike if i have a place to ride.


    Answer:
    1st, a track is only good if you plan on competing. If you don't have the practice in, this would be really unwise! Try checking w/ local landowners that have undeveloped land (one that rides him/herself is even better) and get permission. If your as young as I think you are, then maybe you could trade odd jobs (lawn mowing etc.) for ride permission. If you see someone riding in a feild, stop and ask. Worst they could say is no. Good luck.

    Where and what time can i see the meteor shower in bowie maryland?

    Answer:
    According to the best estimates, in 2007 the Earth is predicted to cut through the densest part of the Perseid stream sometime around 11 p.m. PT on Aug. 12 for those living in the Western United States or Canada. The interval when the meteors will be falling at their highest rates will likely last several hours or more on either side of these times. As a result, it is the late-night hours Sunday, on through the first light of dawn Monday that holds the greatest promise of seeing a very fine Perseid display. The moon, whose bright light almost totally wrecked last year's shower, will have zero impact this year. The moon will be new on Sunday, meaning that there will be no interference from it at all. I read on stardate.org to look in the NE direction Oh, and I also read you might be able to see some tonight, and mon night if you have good viewing conditions (away from city lights)

    Where can i find a job for a 13 year old in Bowie,Maryland?
    Question:
    i mean like a real job not babysitting or anything


    Answer:
    In Maryland, you have to be at least 14 to have a 'real' job and most places won't even hire you until you're 16 or even 18. Unfortunetly, you're going to have to settle for yard work, baby sitting, dog walking, paper route, etc.

    Holy Trinity School in Bowie Maryland ?
    Question:
    Does anyone know much about this school ... ?


    Answer:
    A friend's two kids go there and love it. I believe there is an entrance exam and that it's hard for kids to get in if they don't start at pre-K. The only complaint I have heard is that it is such a tight community that everyone knows everyone else's business.
