Germantown is about 85% residential with zoning ordinances banning industry altogether and limiting commercial development. Because of this, Germantown is a suburb devoted to maintaining its village atmosphere.
Germantown has many award winning schools along with upscale shopping at Saddle Creek, Germantown Collection, Germantown Village Square, and Exeter Place.
There are over 700 acres of parkland in the Germantown area offering a variety of nature programs.
