I love the area surrounded by lots of shopping centers and pretty good commute to malls. I would like to see more supermarkets close by

I just moved here from Florida, I am active duty so I needed a place temporarily and decided on this area, It's not too bad, I wish there was more nature and less fast food places. White Marsh and Honeygo are where I hang out.

The people of Middle river are salt of the earth people who work hard and play hard. Unfortunately our neighboring town is crime ridden and is spilling into our area with break-ins and robberies and even so voilence.

Its a nice location outside of Baltimore, very green and outdoorsy feeling. There's lots of amenities and it's close to the city for work.
