Western Maryland, also known as the Maryland Panhandle, is the portion of the U.S. state of Maryland that typically consists of Washington, Allegany, and Garrett counties. The region is bounded by Preston County, West Virginia, to the west, the Mason–Dixon line (Pennsylvania) to the north, and the Potomac River and West Virginia to the south. At one point, at the town of Hancock, the northern and southern boundaries are separated by just 1.8 miles, the narrowest stretch in the state.

  • Western Maryland (Nederlands: West-Maryland of Westelijk Maryland), ook wel bekend als Maryland Panhandle, is het deel van de Amerikaanse staat Maryland dat bestaat uit de county's Frederick, Washington, Allegany en Garrett. De regio wordt begrensd door de Mason-Dixonlijn in het noorden, West Virginia in het westen en de rivier de Potomac in het zuiden. Er is enige onenigheid over de grenzen van Western Maryland. Voor de meesten uit het Baltimore-Washington-gebied is alles ten westen van Frederick-stad het gebied van Western Maryland, terwijl de inwoners van de county's Allegany en Garrett als de grens tussen Western Maryland beschouwen, wat in de volksmond "Down-State" wordt genoemd. Volgens de census van 2007 had Western Maryland in datzelfde jaar, in de vier county's bij elkaar, 472.03 (nl)
