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.
