[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Howard County has less trash too. And immigrants. Much better school district and parent participation.

If you can figure out where this poster lives..choose the other one.[/quote]

While the PP obviously has issues, s/he is not entirely wrong.  Compare homes in Ho Co to those in Mo Co - comparable areas, for example, where homes are zoned for 2+ acres and feed into Glenelg or River Hill.  Taxes are much higher in Ho Co.  Their infrastructure is much stronger than ours, and b/c the county is smaller and stronger, it can fully support the arts and recreation.

What "infrastructure" is better in HoCo? I lived there 35 years and moved to MoCo 10 years ago. MoCo is better by far with parks, public transportation, arts, public pools, libraries, the community college,  etc.  And many programs are much cheaper, too. I mean, there are more than a million people loving in MoCo, compared to about 300,000 in Howard. We have a much larger tax base here to provide services.

I'm not knocking Howard. Loved it for many years. But IMO MoCo offers much more.[/quote]
