The Wheaton area has a rich history deeply intertwined with the development of the Washington, D.C. suburbs.

Established as an unincorporated town, it experienced significant growth and transformation throughout the 20th century.

The area's development was shaped by various developers, notably Kay Construction Co., contributing to its evolution as a modern-day suburb.

Historically, Wheaton served as a strategic location, evidenced by its role during the Civil War when Union General Jubal Early led troops through the area.

The first television license in the United States was awarded to Wheaton, reflecting its importance in early broadcasting.

The neighborhood’s diversity is reflected in its multiethnic population, with residents coming from countries like Ethiopia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Honduras.

More recently, the Gilchrist Center for Cultural Diversity, named after former Montgomery County Executive Charles W. Gilchrist, has become a local community resource.

The Wheaton Volunteer Rescue Squad has been serving the community for many years.
