Ellicott City,
MD

Ellicott City is the county seat of Howard County, Maryland, and holds a distinction few communities can claim — its historic downtown sits around the oldest surviving railroad station in the United States, built in 1830 as the first terminus of the original B&O Railroad line. Positioned between Baltimore and Washington, D.C., the community blends preserved 18th- and 19th-century architecture with newer residential development that fans out across 31 square miles of rolling Maryland terrain. Fort Meade and BWI Airport are within easy reach, giving the area a steady economic foundation alongside Howard County's well-regarded school system.
Neighborhoods here shift noticeably depending on where you land. The Route 40 corridor offers a lively stretch of international markets and eateries, while the Long Gate area provides a more suburban feel with convenient access to retail and major commuter routes.
