We are a family-oriented city of just under 5,000 people located on the coast of Maryland on the Del-Mar-Va Peninsula. Our city rests against one of our greatest attributes, the banks of the Pocomoke River which is one of the top scenic rivers in America. We are an ideal community in which to raise a family. Children can easily walk or ride their bikes from one of our many neighborhoods to our awa
rd winning Blue Ribbon Schools, boasting numerous state championship sports and fabulous after-school programs. In 2009 we were recognized for the second time as one of only 15 finalists in the nation-wide All-America Cities competition, a distinction that is another source of great pride for our city. Come and enjoy one of our many scenic attractions that make up our downtown area. Take a stroll along our one-half mile river boardwalk, explore our nature trail which begins in Cypress Park, complete with pavilions, restrooms, a children’s playground, and a outdoor amphitheater. Take in a movie or a show at The Historic MarVa Theater, capture the very essence of our history with a tour of The Delmarva Discovery Museum and learn about what makes Pocomoke City and the surrounding areas so very special. Visit one of our other two museums rich in local history, The Sturgis One Room Schoolhouse and The Costen House. A source of great excitement for us is the opening of our riverfront restaurant, Dockside which is a boat accessible! Whatever brings you to Pocomoke City, Maryland, we hope you enjoy your time here and find your own reason for calling Pocomoke City a great place to visit and a wonderful place to live.
