Bowie has a low crime rate, and the crime is in certain pockets. In the city limits (zip code 20715 and 20716) most of the condos are located in South Bowie (20176) such as Convington, and behind Bowie Town Center. You can find some that are for rent. My co-worker rents one in Covington, however be careful as she has said seen a lot of section 8 and multiple tenants are residing in the condos which are having some police activity, but still not as bad. Plus Bowie City Police is located down the street on Excalibur Road.

Lake Arbor, which is in Mitchellville (but has a Bowie zipcode 20721) has more condos. Again do your research as that area has seen some increasing crime in the past few years, but not as bad. This areas is about a 10 min drive to the Largo Town Center Metro Station if you need Public Transport.

You can use Spot Crime if you want to check out the neighborhoods.

Also in the 20715 zip code, you're only a few minutes away from the MARC station at Bowie State University.
