ZIP Codes: 20901, 20902, 20903, 20904, 20905, 20906, 20910, 20912 Location Characteristics: Although Silver Spring real estate has always been desirable to those looking for homes in the Washington, D.C. area, downtown Silver Spring has become even more popular since undergoing something of a renaissance over the last few years. Silver Spring real estate owners now have access to a wide variety of shopping and dining establishments ranging from national chains to family-owned businesses. The Arts have also thrived. The reopening of the Silver Theatre, renamed AFI Silver, has made the city a mecca for independent films. The city now hosts a documentary film festival, Silverdocs, that has become a major draw for Silver Spring real estate owners and tourists alike. But perhaps most importantly, this transformation has brought significant employment opportunities to the city's residents. In 2003, Discovery Communications completed its corporate headquarters adjacent to the Silver Spring Metro station. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the American Nurses Association also call Silver Spring real estate home, providing jobs not only to area residents but also to commuters from adjacent suburbs.
