rat race - 10/19/2010

I comute 1 hour for work and these people are in a race to get everywhere. The majority of people are high strung and unstable. The cities all around are filled with drugs and thieves, the politics are filled with crooks and liars. If you move here you need to be protective of your family and ignor what happens around you. I hope it doesn't happen to you.[read more...]

Not bad for the area... - 6/15/2010

Nestled between D.C. and Baltimore, Eldersburg offers a bit of an escape from the hustle, bustle, and hassle of the city. It's expensive, housing is over-priced, and rentals are scarce. It's a very nice community to raise a family in and feels safe. As much as I like it here, I'm heading back west. The biggest issue for me is taxes, taxes, taxes! It's expensive to live here as it is, but this state is tax heavy. This county is one of the higher taxed. The weather isn't so bad, but you do have to learn how to deal with the snow. The winters are bitter cold and the summers are hot and humid. Could be worse.[read more...]

Its not the place we thought it would be - 8/16/2009

Moved to Eldersburg in 2008. Scenic location 20 miles from Baltimore. Other than the fact that if you want something retail beyond Walmart and Kmart you have to drive to Owings Mills,Westminster,Columbia or as far as Frederick (if you want to stay away from Baltimore, the location is nice. The issue we find is the overly pretentious, better than thou parents and their whiny students. Its a very rich area with a high "white" population filled with entitlement issues. If you like to educate or have your children educated in that environment, by all means this is your kind of place! We'll be leaving soon and won't miss it.[read more...]
