Additional Information
With close proximity to Washington, D.C., St. Mary's County in Maryland offers one of the lowest costs of living in the greater metro area. It's no wonder new homebuyers are discovering the area.
St. Mary's is a peninsula which pushes out from Maryland into the Chesapeake Bay between the Patuxent and Potomac rivers. Much of the new housing and development is centered around “Pax River,” the Naval Air Station, within easy reach of St. Mary’s City and College, St. Mary’s River State Park, and Route 4 north into Solomon’s Island and Calvert. Communities located in St. Mary’s County, such as Wildewood, offer homebuyers several new home choices and great amenities at affordable prices.
The county was also recently ranked first in the state for job growth and personal income growth - primarily from the influx of high-tech talent. But though it has emerged as a world-class center for maritime aviation research, development and testing, it maintains a wonderful, rural Old Maryland flavor.
