Here is some Waldorf info from the wiki:
Waldorf is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Charles County, Maryland. It is 23 miles SSE of Washington, D.C. The population of the census-designated area was 22,311 at the 2000 census. Waldorf was settled before 1900 as a rural crossroads with a train station and was called “Beantown” after a local family. Waldorf is now largely subsumed by the large planned community of St. Charles.
Waldorf is either named after the town of Walldorf, Germany, or has a similar derivation: that is, either a German word meaning “forest village,” or named after the Waldenses, a 12th Century religious sect. Once a tobacco market village, it came to prominence in the 1950s as a gambling destination after slot machines were legalized in Charles County in 1949. The boom lasted until 1968 when gambling was once again outlawed.[1] Its subsequent substantial growth as a residential community began with a 1970 loan package from the Department of Housing and Urban Development which fueled the giant planned community of St. Charles, south of Waldorf.
Waldorf is predominantly a bedroom community for many residents who commute to work at other points in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area, especially personnel at Andrews Air Force Base. Waldorf’s local jobs are primarily in the service and sales industry. Nearby St. Charles Towne Center, a shopping mall, opened in 1988[2] and was remodeled in 2007. St. Charles Towne Center draws shoppers and diners from Maryland, parts of Washington, D.C., and Virginia, causing Charles County to be called the “shopping capital of Southern Maryland.”[citation needed] Route 301 also boasts the “Waldorf Motor Mile,”[citation needed] with car dealerships located primarily along the northbound side.[citation needed] In 2005, Waldorf opened its third public high school (North Point High School), which has advanced science/technology programs; the Capital Clubhouse 24-hour indoor sports complex and ice rink also opened that year.[citation needed] In 2006, plans were announced to build two more shopping centers, including one with high-end stores and an attractive “lifestyle” town center design layout.[citation needed] Ground was also broken to build an office park with mid-rise office buildings near Western Parkway and Route 228.

Here is some Bethesda info from the wiki:
Bethesda is an unincorporated area in southern Montgomery County, Maryland, just Northwest of Washington, D.C. It takes its name from a local church, the Bethesda Presbyterian Church, built in 1820 and rebuilt in 1850, which in turn took its name from Jerusalem’s Pool of Bethesda. (In Aramaic, beth hesda means “house of mercy”.)
As an unincorporated area, Bethesda has no official boundaries. The United States Census Bureau defines a Census-Designated Place named Bethesda whose center is located at 38°59′ North, 77°7′ West. The United States Geological Survey has defined Bethesda as an area whose center is at 38°58′50″N, 77°6′2″W, slightly different from the Census Bureau’s definition. Other definitions are used by the Bethesda Urban Planning District, the United States Postal Service, and other organizations. As of 2000, the Census-defined community had a total population of 55,277. Most of Bethesda’s residents are in Maryland Legislative District 16.

Here is some Baltimore info from the wiki:
Baltimore is an independent city and the largest city in the state of Maryland in the United States. Baltimore is located in central Maryland on the western coast of the Chesapeake Bay and is approximately 40 miles (64 km) north of Washington D.C.. Founded in 1729, Baltimore is a major U.S. seaport and is situated closer to major Midwestern markets than any other major seaport on the East Coast. Baltimore’s Inner Harbor has always remained a major asset, once the second leading port of entry for immigrants to the United States and a major manufacturing center. Today the harbor is home to Harborplace and the National Aquarium in Baltimore and is a successful example of Baltimore’s ambitious efforts at renewal. Following the fall of many of its largest manufacturing industries, Baltimore has shifted primarily to a service sector-oriented economy, with the largest employer no longer Bethlehem Steel but Johns Hopkins University and Johns Hopkins Hospital. Despite some successful revitalization Baltimore is still posed with many big-city challenges such as concentrated poverty, high crime, and inadequate public education.
As of 2007, the population of Baltimore City was 637,455.[11] The Baltimore Metropolitan Area, which includes the city’s surrounding suburbs, has approximately 2.6 million residents; the 20th largest in the country. Baltimore is also the largest city in the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area of approximately 8.1 million residents. Because there is also a Baltimore County surrounding (but not including) the city, it is sometimes referred to as Baltimore City when a clear distinction is desired.
The city is named for the founding proprietor of the Maryland Colony, Lord Baltimore in the Irish House of Lords. Baltimore himself took his title from a place named Baltimore in Ireland, which is an Anglicized form of the Irish language Baile an Tí Mhóir,[12] meaning “Fort of the Jewels” and referring to the O’Driscoll castle that still dominates the town.
