The Southern Maryland Chronicle (SoMDC) is a digital-only news publication serving communities across Southern Maryland, including Charles, Calvert, and St. Mary’s counties, as well as southern portions of Anne Arundel and Prince George’s counties. The outlet provides regional coverage focused on local news, public safety, government, community events, and issues affecting residents throughout the SoMD region.
Operating as an online-first platform, SoMDC publishes a broad mix of content intended to reflect the daily life, growth, and changing needs of Southern Maryland communities. Its coverage includes breaking news, civic developments, transportation, education, weather events, local businesses, and community activities, alongside reader-submitted tips, photos, and contributed content.
The publication emphasizes strong community engagement and positions itself as an evolving regional news source that grows alongside the communities it serves. Through digital publishing and social media distribution, SoMDC delivers timely updates to readers across a geographically dispersed region that often receives limited attention from larger Maryland news organizations.
