It is a suburb of Washington, D.C., and part of the Washington metropolitan area. Founded in 1883 and incorporated in 1890, Takoma Park, informally called "Azalea City," is a Tree City USA and a nuclear-free zone. A planned commuter suburb, it is situated along the Metropolitan Branch of the historic Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, just northeast of Washington, D.C., and it borders the neighborhood of Takoma, Washington, D.C. It is governed by an elected mayor and six elected councilmembers, who form the city council, and an appointed city manager, under a council-manager style of government. The city's population was 16,715 at the 2010 national census. The city shares the exact same date with the City of Hong Kong for a similar event which happened to both cities. On July 1, 1997, when Hong Kong was transferred back from British Control to Mainland China, Takoma Park was unified, in which the portions of the city which were in Prince George's County were combined with the portions of the city which were in Montgomery County. Since 2013, residents of Takoma Park can vote in municipal elections when they turn sixteen. It was the first city in the United States to extend voting rights to 16- and 17-year-olds in city elections.〔 Since then, the City of Hyattsville has done the same. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Takoma Park, Maryland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
