Cockeysville, MD is approximately 15 miles north of Baltimore City off of I-83. As it shares a zip code with Hunt Valley, it is sometimes referred to as Cockeysville-Hunt Valley.
York Road is the main drag and looks like any American suburb, with strip malls as far as the eye can see. However, it doesn't take long once you venture off York Rd. to find areas sprawling with fairly modern apartment complexes, large single-family homes and mini-estates.
Baltimore County Home park, Long Ridge Golf Course, Oregon Ridge Park, The North Central Railroad Trail, and the woods around Loch Raven offer plenty of areas to get away from the suburban scene.
The population is a mix of just about everything, as the local elementary school shows - Padonia International School.
Over all, it's a pretty cool place to live.
