Hanover is a suburban community positioned about ten miles southwest of Downtown Baltimore and thirty miles northeast of Washington, DC. The close proximity to these two cities has made Hanover a highly popular home base among commuters. It's located less than ten miles from Fort Meade, making it a popular destination for those working at the military base.
Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport sits right on the east side of the community, which offers rail service into both Baltimore and DC. Arundel Mills Mall on the south side anchors a thriving shopping, dining, and entertainment district, which includes a movie theater, Medieval Times, and Maryland Live! Casino.
