Hi everyone. Where's the best place to live? Would be a temp relocation (about 6 months) to the area. The work is based in Towson but would need relatively good access to BWI airport for a couple of times a week.

Prefer an apartment complex that is tucked away, newish, safe in an area with lots of greenery and trees - prefer a mid-rise type building that is well run, residential, family oriented but schools not an issue; not a college dorm type vibe. Had heard the area around BWI may fit the bill. Have looked at Linthicum Heights, Hanover. Did have concerns re the drive to Towson. What are some other in between towns that may work?

Have also looked at Towson but again wondered about the drive? 15-20 miles away is fine as long as the drive is no more than 25 to 30 minutes. Budget is flexible, understand the apt may be at the higher end but if there are some areas that only the locals know, appreciate hearing about them.

Also, saw many many complexes online and ruled out many due to extensive negative reviews about things such as lack of maintenance, creepy crawlies, questionable end of lease practices, super thin walls, floods, lack of parking. Thanks!!

There's a group of apartment buildings in Tuscany-Canterbury, a city neighborhood on the north side. Leafy and green with trees aplenty. Some are better than others. Google apartments 21218 tuscany canterbury and you'll find them. Streets are North Charles, West 39th, University Parkway and Canterbury Road. Some buildings are mainly Hopkins students, others are mixed. The location is about 15-20 minutes from Towson through local traffic, and 25 minutes to BWI.

Towson itself has plenty of apartments. As long as you're close to the beltway it's not that long of a drive to BWI outside rush hour.

Again, thanks for all of the responses. Quite helpful. Wondering are there any newer areas to search out other than what has already been posted? While checking many apartment reviews, it's been surprising the number that have mentioned pest control vermin problems - in high rises as well as older looking buildings.
