    What it’s like to live in Harpers Choice

    Planned convenience characterizes Harpers Choice, where Columbia's visionary mixed-use design creates walkable neighborhoods with integrated amenities. Residents enjoy the Columbia Association facilities including pools and tennis courts, plus the extensive pathway system connecting residential areas to Harpers Choice Village Center.

The area's mature trees now tower above streets originally planted when Columbia began, creating natural beauty that complements the architectural elements while providing essential shade during Maryland summers.

    Hickory Ridge

    What it’s like to live in Hickory Ridge

    Columbia's Hickory Ridge village combines suburban space with unexpected walkability. The planned community design means rentals – whether apartments or townhomes – include access to swimming pools and walking paths maintained through Columbia Association fees (often included in rent). Unlike cookie-cutter suburbs, the neighborhood features mature trees and established landscaping that creates actual shade during Maryland's humid summers. The central location puts both Baltimore and DC within commuting distance, though you'll definitely need a car. Many rental communities include washer/dryers – an amenity worth its weight in gold compared to Baltimore's shared laundry situation. The nearby lake offers peaceful evening walks, while Hickory Ridge Village Center provides necessities without driving to the mall.
