I tend to hear "DMV" the most among black youths in PG County. The further you get from that demographic, the less likely you are to hear it.

It was originally used by popular rappers in DC, and PG, later on it started being commonuse, pretty much everyone regardless of race uses the term DMV,

True but I think that's more so the case when you get closer to DC, cause I don't hear it too much or see it in IG bios among white people in places further out like Frederick.

People in Frederick do rep the DMV. Frederick County (esp. the City of, and the southeastern portion) exists in its current state because of commuters from MoCo moving up there.
