Thirding King's contrivance. It's ideal for getting onto 95S quickly for getting to College Park. Lived there for about a decade before moving. That said, 400-500k is tough in the area for a single family home these days. That's why we ended up buying in Elkridge. Townhouses are easily doable in the 300 to 400k range and there are loads of playgrounds along the trail system to make up for the lack of large backyards with those.

Also the libraries are amazing here u/RBGismypatronus. We are in walking distance of one now and our kids absolutely love it.
