North Laurel Summary

History

The area now known as North Laurel, Maryland was first settled in the late 1700s by a group of Quakers from Pennsylvania. The Quakers were attracted to the area due to its fertile soil and abundant natural resources. The area was known as “Quaker Bottom” until the early 1800s when it was renamed “Laurel” after the laurel trees that grew in abundance in the area.
In the mid-1800s, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O) was built through the area, connecting it to Baltimore and Washington, D.C. This allowed for the development of the area as a rural farming community. The area was largely agricultural until the 1950s when the population began to grow rapidly due to the construction of the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) water and sewer lines. This allowed for the development of the area as a suburban community.
In the late 1960s, the area was officially incorporated as the Town of North Laurel. The town was named after the laurel trees that grew in abundance in the area. The town has since grown to become a vibrant and diverse community with a population of over 25,000.
