Howard County is the third richest county in America in terms of per capita income and the richest in the state of Maryland. That being said most residents aren't super rich snobs but are simply comfortably upper middle class. Is located withing closs proximity to both Baltimore and Washington D.C which is partially why it is so desirable. The mass majority of Howard County's population is centered around the Coulumbia Ellicott City area. In terms of demographics Howard county is reasonably diverse with whites still being the majority but Blacks and Asians also making up a deacent amount of the counties population.

Howard County is ranked as one of the richest counties in the United States. Many cities being ranked in the best small cities/towns in the United States as well. Its place where the only good hang outs are the Columbia Mall, and occasionally the Lakefront if you are pushed to extremes. A place that if you attend highschool there you most likely have hated Long Reach - which was okay because if you went to Long Reach you pretty much hated everyone else twice as much. A place where the only thing you hate more than Long Reach or River Hill is Montgomery County.
A major attraction in Howard County is Merriweather Post Pavillion. A venue that everyone has been to at least once and if not you are given a stare like you are an alien. Chances are you probably applied to, if not worked, there before.
Most inhabitants of Howard County often find their summer days either spent planning to visit or actually visiting Ocean City, where on any day you can look down the beach and see 50 people that you've seen aimlessly walking around the mall - maybe you even saw them purchase that horrible bathing suit.

A common conversation during the summer in Howard County
Jessica: Oh my god. I am so bored there is nothing to do
Heather: I know, right? Want to go to the mall this weekend or something?
Jessica: We are here right now. Lets go to Ocean City, that girl we pretend to like can probably drive us. Shes a total sucker.
Stranger: I couldnt help but overhear, but I'm going to Ocean City this weekend to what a coincidence.
Another Stranger who the stranger doesnt even know: Did you guys just say your going to Ocean City? Thats so funny, I am too! Maybe I'll see you guys there.
I think you get the picture.

As said before goes by HoCo to most us kids living here....not gonna go into the details of being rich and great schools/sports. Heres a new definition: Howard County the most stereotypical place on earth.
Everything living breathing or even a building is given some sort of little name and descroption to it
lets go with Schools for instance
River Hill- hated by many schools for some reason because thy think of the studens there are all snobby rich kids
Oakland Mills- the "ghetto" of Hoco
Mt. hebron- with amzaing lax but bad reo for many drug "issues"
many others along with those
the truth is with schools the residents, EVERYTHING here is given a label when really we are not all what we think each other is. soo lets stop being hated by eevryone else and stop encouraging the stereotypes.
