Downtown Columbia, also known as Town Center, is the heart of the city. Along with restaurants and medical facilities, Downtown Columbia is home to the city’s most popular shopping and entertainment hubs. Practice some retail therapy at the Mall in Columbia, which has over 200 stores and a movie theater. Lake Kittamaqundi has waterfront parks, trails, and a stage for live music and movie screenings. True to its name, Symphony Woods Park is a sprawling park with two popular venues for concerts and festivals, Merriweather Post Pavilion and the Chrysalis. As far as rentals, Downtown Columbia has moderately to upscale apartments, condos, and townhomes. Attracting even more renters, Downtown Columbia is about a 30-minute drive to Baltimore and a hour to Washington, DC.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
