AWESOME schools for kids of every age range. Awesome conveniences and culture. Awesome diverse population. Awesome medical care. Awesome nightlife and family activity ranges. Incredibly educated but not pretentious community. Genuinely good people here who are service-oriented; many former military and government workers. Best crab in the world. Definitely would move back!
Crofton is an up and coming community. Its location is ideal. It is in between Baltimore, Annapolis and Washington DC as well as being close to the Ft Meade base. That means easy access to employment for parents. It is convenient to two major roadways - Rt 50 and Rt 32. Only 2 hours from the beach!! It is also convenient to Baltimore Washington International Airport. There are professional sports teams within a short drive. The Baltimore Orioles and Baltimore Ravens play about 35 minutes away. Even closer (about 10 mins) are the Bowie BaySox - a Baltimore Orioles minor league team. There are lots of things for families to do. We have all kinds of sports for kids - soccer, football, softball, baseball, lacrosse! Crofton has movie theatres, go-karts and escape rooms. The Renaissance Festival is right in our back yard. And if you are a little crazy, the Polar Bear Plunge into the Chesapeake Bay is close. Community, Convenience, Crofton.
I have lived in Crofton all my life and wouldn't want to live anywhere else. In Crofton, mostly everyone knows everyone. There's not one person that I can think of that isn't friendly. When going to the local grocery store your constantly smiling at people when you past by each other. There are so many activities to get involved in such as soccer, football, girl/cub scouts, and so many others. I have been apart of the Crofton girls recreational lacrosse and field hockey teams. I have made so many memories and lasting friendships. The sense of community that has been built in Crofton has been amazing to be a part of. With many people wanting to live in Crofton, an over crowding problem is starting to occur. If I could change one thing about Crofton I would stop the building of more neighborhoods. Not only does over population start, animals habitats are being taken away. All in all, there is no place I would want to call home other than Crofton, Maryland.
