Employment opportunities and a spiritual community just outside of Baltimore
Milford Mill is a neighborhood located just outside of Baltimore City, bordered on its east by Interstate 695, that has both economic and spiritual considerations to recommend it. “One major draw is the Social Security Administration. They’re a major area employer,” says Samina Chowdhury, Realtor with The Bob Lucido Team of Keller Williams Integrity, who has been selling in the area for over 20 years. “And another big reason people come here is the community around the Islamic Center of Baltimore.” Officially, the area’s name is simply Milford; however, the name Milford Mill has stuck in the minds of residents due to its proximity to an old mill site located along its namesake road. The neighborhood presents a varying sprawl of suburban homes and commercial parks, drawing prospective buyers with its prices and central location. For decades the area has also been a beacon for Baltimore’s Islamic community, creating a unique sense of community among residents. “Space is important to people who move here because when they have people over for dinner, it’s not 5 people. It’s more like 50 people,” Chowdhury says. “We come from a very family and community-oriented mindset. Kids take care of their parents when they grow older, and that’s what you see with the folks who live here. We’re very thankful for such a blessing in this community, and that’s something you see beginning to steep into surrounding areas as well.”
A sprawl of single-family homes in Baltimore County
Residential development in Milford Mill has taken place sporadically since the 1950s, leading to streets lined with a variety of homes. “It’s a good mix of home styles,” Chowdhury says. “There are some newer builds, some that are older and have been renovated.” Midcentury minimalist cottages and split-levels sit comfortably on the slightly raised lawns, with prices ranging generally from $350,000 to $450,000. Lots in this densely populated neighborhood are often only large enough to accommodate small backyards that rub shoulders with the neighbors’ property, although a rare few do have enough space for in-ground swimming pools. Modern Traditional builds, generally with colonial influence, can also be found here, tending to cost anywhere from $400,000 to $600,000 depending on the build year. Several rows of townhouses with both brick and wood faces are speckled throughout Milford Mill, with older midcentury units pricing between $150,000 and $350,000. Townhouses built as recently as 2024 tend to jump in price, costing around $450,000.
Reputable area schools and the close by college
Milford Mill is zoned for Baltimore County Public Schools, with children on the north side of the neighborhood attending Scotts Branch Elementary. They would then proceed to the Northwest Academy of Health Sciences, a magnet school focused on giving students foundational knowledge of the healthcare field. Both schools earn a C-plus from Niche. On the south side of the neighborhood, students may begin at Hebbville Elementary, also rated C-plus, before moving to Woodlawn Middle, which scores a C. All neighborhood students enrolled in public schools then attend Milford Mill Academy, which receives a C-minus and offers magnet and career technical education programs in fields such as cosmetology, dance and automotive service technology. Milford Mill is also adjacent to the McDonogh School, a nondenominational day and boarding school that scores an A-plus. McDonogh enrolls over 1,400 students from prekindergarten through grade 12 and allows upper school students to live on campus during the week. Lunch in the campus cafeteria is included in the price of tuition. Many parents in the area enjoy the community’s proximity to well-regarded collegiate institutions like the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. “UMBC is very close by, so kids can go to school and live at home,” says Chowdhury. “It’s a very good way to get their degree while also keeping costs down.”
Golfing and other outdoor recreation in Maryland
The Woodlands Golf Course stands between Milford Mill and the pastoral expanse to the west of the neighborhood. Ranked by Washington Golf Monthly as the best public course in the Baltimore suburbs, this facility offers a massive 45-station driving range and shares its clubhouse with Diamond Ridge, an 18-hole course designed by architect Ed Ault. At Daniels Dam, folks can paddle canoes and kayaks up the Patapsco River while anglers toss lines, hoping for bites from smallmouth bass and sunfish. Hikers can explore the 200 miles of trails weaving through the Patapsco Valley State Park or visit one of the park’s many picnic areas and playgrounds.
Halal restaurants and storied diners serving the community
Residents can shop for groceries at either the Aldi or the Food Lion on Liberty Road; however, international options like Caribbean Supermarket and halal selections at Al-Wahid Foods are readily available within a 3-mile drive. “There are halal restaurants all around the area,” Chowdhury says, including popular stops like Zauq Halal Kitchen and Meet & Feast Pakistani Restaurant and Banquet Hall, both located in the Meadows Business Park. There is a Walmart Supercenter for daily household necessities and a Home Depot for weekend project supplies nearby, as well as Security Square Mall, located near the North American School of Trades. This shopping center has been open since 1972 and features over 100 restaurants and retailers, including the AMC movie theater. About 2 miles south of the mall, businesses and restaurants line either side of Baltimore National Pike. Among the most frequented is the Double T Diner, a Maryland institution that has served a classic American breakfast, lunch and dinner menu since it opened in the 1950s.
Commuting to the city or out to Howard County
Milford Mill is hemmed in on the east side by Interstate 695, colloquially known as the Baltimore Beltway, which makes commuting to the city simple if not quick. Those who wish to avoid the notorious backups on this highway can take Liberty Road all the way to Mondawmin Mall in northwest Baltimore and continue downtown via surface streets. Interstate 70, a major east-west connector for Maryland, sits to the south of the neighborhood. “Residents can commute to Howard County easily,” Chowdhury says. “There are plenty of people who work over there but live here, since housing is much more affordable in this county.”
Cultural celebrations at home and live entertainment in Baltimore
Cultural and religious celebrations are popular in the neighborhood, stemming primarily from the Islamic Society of Baltimore. “The whole community celebrates Muslim holidays together,” Chowdhury says. “Right now there are lights all over for Indian festivals like Dewali, as well.” These celebrations often include block parties and meal gatherings, complete with traditional performances by local musicians. Of course, secular events are also within reach of community residents. The neighborhood is just about 15 miles from downtown Baltimore, where orange clad locals gather at Camden Yards for Orioles games or at Power Plant Live! for concerts.
