Failed PROD. Wholly unsourced and a Google search turns up no evidence whatsoever of the creation or existence of this neighborhood. Possible hoax; and badly fails
WP:GNG in any case.

This comment because there is a real, nearby neighborhood and I assumed that the neighborhood had been "misplaced" (Woodmont, Bethesda, MD. Along Woodmont Ave. It's a real place, just not a legally defined place. Over the District line in Maryland.

Woodside (Silver Spring, Maryland). I'll add this one to our category. Cheers.

:*I high-handedly moved the page to Bethesda, Maryland.
User:JohnInDC was right to be confused, article is about a neighborhood in Maryland, but the title read "D.C.". Needs sourcing, 2 articles I brought would make a start, so, probably keep and tag for sourcing..

delete While there is a Woodmont neaighborhood in nearby, this article is very specifically about Woodmont, D.C. agree with Nom that as best I know or can discover, no such place exists. I think that we can delete this, unless article creator @
Juliaraven: or someone else can source it. I raise the possibility that it is not precisely a hoax, but, rather, a realtor attempting to add cachet to an area. Either way, I can't source it.

... and a Woodmont Place, SE, and Woodmont Country Club in Rockville, Maryland. This article is about none of those but rather about a specific subset of
Chevy Chase, DC residents who say they were unhappy about their association with that name, and therefore "seceded" to form a smaller, separate new neighborhood, "Woodmont".
