The Good

Real Talk

• !Commute to Baltimore is 160 minutes, so it's not a good option if you need a daily commute. Local job market is limited; most employment is centered around iNBIO and a few small businesses. Walkability is almost zero—everything requires a car. Nightlife and dining options are sparse, so you’ll need to drive to nearby towns for variety.
• $High car ownership costs (gas, insurance, maintenance), Potential future property value stagnation due to limited demand, Higher utility bills for heating/air conditioning due to larger homes.
