What does the future of Montgomery County look like to you? And how does the community where you live, work, and play support your vision for your future?

Thrive Montgomery 2050 is our chance to figure out – together – how Montgomery County can be a great community over the next 30 years. It’s about how we respond to future opportunities and challenges in the county. Together. But first, we need to determine what we want our community to be in the decades ahead so we can create the future we want.

Through Thrive Montgomery 2050, we’ll identify and examine the changes occurring, consider what we want for tomorrow, then develop a shared vision that allows us to keep what we love about Montgomery County while taking the actions needed to thrive over the next 30+ years.

The result of Thrive Montgomery 2050 will be a living and breathing plan that guides decision making and helps secure resources to ensure Montgomery County is a place where everyone can be successful, have opportunities and enjoy a high quality of life in a beautiful and resilient environment.

The plan will draw on your vision, ideas and care for your community, best practices, expert analysis, futurist  thinking, and innovative responses. Together, we’ll determine how to manage growth in the future and  address the challenges and opportunities from technological, social, environmental and economic change.

Let’s ensure a vibrant economy, equity for all residents  and a healthy environment through 2050 and beyond.
