Review of Columbia, Maryland


Residential housing in Columbia, MD
Star Rating - 1/12/2010
Columbia is a "new town", having been developed in the mid 1960's. First residents arrived during the summer of 1967. Our family enjoyed being a part of that experience, moving to Columbia in August of 1967.

Today, in 2010, we continue to live in Columbia as well as our adult sons and their families.

Housing in the Columbia area is varied both in age, style, size. Today one can rent an apartment, a townhouse, a condominium or purchase a condominium apartment or townhouse, townhouses with or without garages, detached homes of many designs, sizes, age. Recently completed active adult communities in Columbia include villas (that's a townhouse with a first floor master suite) and low rise condominium apartment buildings. Housing in the Columbia area is available for the first time homeowner, the move-up resident, the downsizing adult and everything in between. Columbia is the place to check out for the singles, partners, families of all size, residents of all ages.

Columbia is located in between Baltimore to the northeast, Washington DC to the south, Fort Meade (NSA, etc.) to the east, Baltimore Washington International Airport, and convenient to trains traveling the north and south routes as well as I-95. Convenience is huge! Check Columbia OUT!
