GETTING ORIENTED
Baltimore County is an extremely convenient place to live if
you work in Baltimore City.
There are many residential and suburban areas with quiet
neighborhoods. You'll find Dundalk, Middle River, Essex,
Rosedale, and White Marsh in east Baltimore County.
These places are close to the Chesapeake Bay, with many

waterfront properties and coastlines. You'll find Parkville,
Towson, Lutherville-Timonium, Cockeysville, Pikesville, and
Owings Mills in North Baltimore County.
HIGHWAYS &
TRANSPORTATION
Baltimore County's well-developed highway system makes
commuting to Baltimore, DC, and other parts of Maryland
relatively easy. The I-695 beltway circles all of Baltimore City.
You can get onto I-95 in the southwest and northeast as it cuts
through Baltimore City. You'll take 95 South to Washington and
95 North to Philadelphia and New York. I- 895 is a nice bypass
that runs parallel to I-95. I-97 takes you south to Annapolis, I-
70 takes you west to Frederick, I-795 takes you northwest to
Reisterstown towards Westminster, and I-83 takes you due
north into Pennsylvania.
EMPLOYERS
The largest employer within Baltimore County, by far, is the
Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
The headquarters and several offices are located in Woodlawn

(21207), right off of I-695 and I-70. Other major employers are
T. Rowe Price, the Community College of Baltimore County
(CCBC), Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC), MedStar
Franklin Square Hospital,
EDUCATION
BIn addition to all of the solid educational institutions in
Baltimore City, such as Johns Hopkins and the University of
Maryland, Baltimore County has several universities and satellite
campuses. The Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC)
has locations in Essex, Dundalk, Owings Mills, and Catonsville,
with a current enrollment of about 48,000. Towson University
has over 20,000 students and over 110 majors, concentrations,
and tracks.
AFFORDABILITY
Baltimore County tends to be a more affordable place to
live compared to Baltimore City, Howard, and Anne
Arundel counties. According to the 2020 Census, the
median household income in Baltimore County was
$78 724, and the per capita income was $41 089. The
median value of a Baltimore County owner-occupied
housing unit (single family, townhome, or condo) was
$267, 400.
NATURE & SIGHTS
Baltimore County has so much scenic and natural
beauty, whether it be the inlets of the western shore of
the Chesapeake Bay, the lush forests of the Patapsco
River Valley, or the Loch Raven Reservoir.
You'll see amazing aquatic and woodland wildlife that
is unique to the region. Located by Dundalk,
Edgemere, and Sparrows Point, North Point State
Park is a great place for water views and picnics.
Likewise, Rocky Point Park and Beach and Hart- Miller
Island are convenient if you go a little farther north
near Essex. Lots of people who own boats keep them
in the marinas around Middle River.
BREWERIES & WINERIES
Baltimore County has some of the best breweries and
wineries in Maryland! In east Baltimore County, you
have DuClaw Brewing and Key Brewing Company. In
Halethorpe, you've got both Heavy Seas Beer and
Guinness Open Gate Brewery, the only Guinness
factory in the United States! In Cockeysville there's B.C.
Brewery and in Monkton, there's Inverness Brewing.
