EVsmart - Pepco - Forest Heights Police and Community Center
Oxon Hill, Maryland
Overview
EVsmart - Pepco - Forest Heights Police and Community Center is a SWTCH site in Oxon Hill, MD, with 4 Level 2 ports.
This is a Level 2 site with no DC fast charging. Level 2 delivers a few hours for a substantial charge, so it suits places where the car is parked anyway — workplaces, hotels, long errands.
Only the J1772 AC connector is listed. The standard AC connector on North American EVs other than Tesla. Every non-Tesla EV sold in the US can use it directly, and Teslas can with the adapter that ships with the car.
SWTCH operates 292 sites across Maryland, so the same app or card should work at the others.
Its closest neighbour is Colonial Village Apartments, 635 m to the NE.
The site has been on the register for about 1 year.

About this record
Details are drawn from the federal alternative-fuel station register (station ID 190381). The register records what operators report; it does not verify whether individual ports are working right now.
Port counts describe how the site is configured, not whether a given port is free right now. Check the operator's own app before setting out if you are relying on a specific charger.
