Apartment Choices in Timonium, Towson: Need Advice (Baltimore: apartment complex, house)

[Clymer]

Hi everyone,

I recently accepted employment at the University of Maryland Medical Center in downtown Baltimore. I will be starting in mid June, I would like to be settled in an apartment by the beginning of June. I would eventually like to buy a house but for now need to get an apartment. I was thinking about living either in Towson, or Timonium (lutherville-timonium). Do you think the commute is acceptable? I will be working night shift 9pm-7am, so I am assuming it should be okay. Does anybody know of any really nice apartment complexes in these areas? I am looking for a quiet, safe, convenient to shopping (groceries etc), ample and safe parking, laundry inside the unit would be great also. It would be nice if it was in a community w/ mature trees, good neighbors etc.. I ran into this apartment complex called Cardiff Charles Apartments anybody have any info on them? Them seem to have decent sized apartments, and have a few positive reviews on a review site. My girlfriend will also be moving w/ me so I definitely need a place where she will feel safe coming home in the evening from work also. So if anybody has any information on the apartment that I mentioned or any other place in the Towson, Timonium area or a place that would have most of my criteria, I would definitely appreciate it. And my budget is up to $1200, if I can find it cheaper I would be even more happier

Fairways of Towson.

Towson and Timonium are chock full of apartments of all kinds, including Fairways. I really like the newly renovated Rodger's Forge apartments; you have close access to everything, reasonably safe, even at night, and short ride to downtown at night.
