Fort Meade - USNA - Andrews AFB: College Park MD - Money's Top 25 "Where the Singles Are"

College Park MD - Money's Top 25 "Where the Singles Are"

UMD CampusCollege Park real estate houses a lot of singles, according to an article appearing on CNNMoney.com.   College Park may not be one of the Top 100 Best Places to Live 2007, but it is one of the Top 25 Best Places to Live Where the Singles Are, with 57.8% singles among the 26,400 population.

According to the article, "University of Maryland students have easy access to a variety of nightlife and culture, and life inside the Beltway is plentiful pickings for selective singles. The Metro runs to Washington, D.C. and the vibrant streets of neighborhoods like Adams Morgan or Georgetown, and a quick trip up I-95 will deliver you to spectacular Inner Harbor and the rest of Baltimore. Keep your eye on the Rethink College Park initiative to see what's in store for the town."

The City of College Park is a great place to buy a home, too, using a Home Ownership Grant for owner occupants.  Anyone purchasing a single-family property that was previously rented for a minimum of two years is eligible for a $7,500 grant.  Sound too good to be true?  Check it out!

I've done a lot of business with UMD grad students and staff.  They're a pleasure to work with!  I've also enjoyed helping College Park investors/landlords to sell their properties.  It's a very positive environment to work.

Thanks for the information. I like your part of the country. Spent a lot of time there in the early '70's. One suspects there's investment opportunity in College Park.

Gary - You're right!  Not only is it a good investment from the perspective of being a College Town, it's only minutes and a couple subway stops from D.C., and probably about 1/2 hour from the Ft. Meade/NSA area, which will be the beneficiary of thousands of new jobs under BRAC.
