BALTIMORE COUNTY · TOWN GUIDE

Towson.

A county seat with a real downtown.

Towson pairs an active downtown — restaurants, offices, Towson University — with quiet, tree-lined streets immediately behind it. Expect mid-century brick homes, newer townhomes near the core, and a walkable center most suburbs cannot offer.
