The county is definitionally suburby because all its growth in the last century was for white flight from the city. There is almost no mixed use development and where it is its usually insanely expensive to live there. If its walkable, its like a single road of shops surrounded by parking lots with limited access highways abound.

This man has definitely been to Baltimore county. I think that might need to be adopted as the official description.

Baltimore County is demographically fairly diverse; roughly 40% POC.

Towson, Catonsville, Woodlawn and several other places are old street car suburbs of Baltimore. Wealthy Baltimoreans from the city built their summer homes in these places to escape to city. Much of Baltimore county is just as old as Baltimore city. It’s the other suburb/exurb counties that are products of white flight and sprawl.

Owings mills has transit oriented mixed use development at metro center.
