A planned city in Maryland of about 100,000
people between Baltimore and DC. Probably one of the most diverse places you can find in this country. You can find every type of person from the
rich, to the middle class, to the poor, and a lot of different ethnicities.
Columbia is made up of 10 villages. Some of the apartments in the oldest villages (oakland mills, wilde lake, harpers choice, owen
brown, long reach) have high crime due to relocation of public housing from mostly Baltimore but also DC,PG County, and NY. Lotta hispanics in some areas to. But this is seen in all of the Baltimore-Washington burbs, even the richest city in montgomery county (Potomac) has section 8 apartments yup. Oakland Mills is probably the worst part of columbia, feels like a clone of Baltimore City and there's
nothing there to do. Due to the growing public housing over the past 20 years and increasing, and more gentrification in baltimore, a lot of
people say Columbia
will become the next Baltimore City but I doubt that, maybe more like a Yonkers like in NY with a higher crime rate and more
money lol.
Columbia is in howard county, which is now ranked the third richest county in the nation. Columbia and Ellicott City together were ranked by
money magazine as the #8 best place 2 live. Makes sense since the schools are good and it is right in between 2 cities with a lot of sh*t to do in those cities. But you take the good w/ the bad, you have to deal with a lot of fake
people, like lower-middle class pretendin to be
rich, or upper middle class pretendin to act "street" like the poor
people who live in the apartments down the street lol.
"Columbia? Man Columbia is borin as sh*t aint nothin to do out there"
"There some real ni**as out there, but a lot dem ni**as is rich clowns, they walk around wearin white
people clothes and the white
people wearin black
people clothes"
"Columbia has no indentity, no culture, feels fake"
