Location Characteristics  

Calvert County, the smallest county in Southern Maryland, is one of the fastest growing counties in the State of Maryland. Calvert County retains its rural character and agrarian roots.  It offers good schools, a clean environment, and a good quality of life. Calvert County is a peninsula; bounded by the Chesapeake Bay on the east and the Patuxent River on the west. The County's many creeks provide refuge for wildlife as well as scenic areas for boating and fishing. Containing approximately 219 square miles, the County is nine miles wide at its widest point, and 35 miles from the Anne Arundel line to Solomons.  Prince Frederick, the County seat, is located 35 miles southeast of Washington, D.C., and 55 miles south of Baltimore. There are two incorporated towns in Calvert County: North Beach and Chesapeake Beach, located on the bay at the northeast corner of the county. In addition, the Comprehensive Plan identifies seven "town centers." These include (from north to south) Dunkirk, Owings, Huntingtown, Prince Frederick, St. Leonard, Lusby, and Solomons.  There are many good deals to be had in real estate at the present time.  What a time to buy!
