Which five does the state list?

In 20910 are RISE at 7900 Fenton Street and HerbaFi at 8413 Ramsey Avenue, both in the downtown area. Story Cannabis is at 12355 Georgia Avenue in 20906. Verilife at 11300 Georgia Avenue and Green Goods at 14348 Layhill Road, Suite B1, are in 20902, and the locator files both under Rockville names while giving Silver Spring addresses.

What does unincorporated mean for a buyer?

Zoning here is Montgomery County's, and Takoma Park, which borders the downtown to the north, is a separate city with its own government. Downtown Silver Spring also touches the northern tip of Washington, D.C. Verdex lists RISE and HerbaFi only, so three of the five are absent from our register and the counts here follow the state. Match the licence address, not the postal name. Maryland's state-level limits are listed on the Maryland hub.
