On just 5 square miles of land in Anne Arundel County, Maryland is Crofton. Crofton is a census-designated place and planned community populated by roughly 27,000 people. The small area is planned around a 3.5 mile loop with beautiful scenery with two elementary schools, the town hall and a country club as inclusions. It is a perfect route for walkers, cyclists and joggers. You could find all the attractions on the loop by looking through the Crofton, MD Yellow Pages or find great shopping, dining and entertainment in the Crofton, MD Business Directory.
Crofton has a very low crime rate, but the cost of living in these safe streets is a bit pricey. Median home price is $319,500 with the median family income at $116,552 a year. With 81% of its residents completing at least some college, Crofton has a high priority on education. Despite being it being a small community, Crofton is a 30 minute drive from Baltimore, and just a little bit further will get you to Annapolis and Washington D.C. Crofton was ranked 82nd on Money Magazine's top 100 places to live among small towns in 2011.
