Conveniently located family homes and Baltimore elementary schools
Located in Northwest Baltimore, Arlington’s early 1900s homes are comparatively larger than those in nearby neighborhoods and come with big, fenced backyards to match. The neighborhood also has easy access to two elementary schools – Arlington Elementary School and Pimlico Elementary Middle School. Located just south of the Pimlico Race Course, the area can get a little noisy during the famous Preakness Stakes, but mostly, Arlington is considered a slower-paced part of the greater Baltimore area. With the major thoroughfare of Reisterstown Road running through it, locals can get to several small businesses and big box stores with ease. Arlington’s CAP Index score is an overall 6 out of 10, which is higher than the national average of 4, and its score for homicide is 9 out of 10.
Arlington is located in Northwest Baltimore.

New England aesthetic residences and row houses
Many Arlington properties were built between the 1920s and 1950s. Traditional-style brick and wood-sided row houses dominate the neighborhood landscape, featuring compact front porches and small, inclined front yards. Single-family homes consist of Colonial-inspired and shotgun-style residences with simple designs, further giving the area a classic look. Though many homes have fallen into disrepair or have been abandoned, several are being renovated or updated to modern standards. Properties up for auction can range in price between $20,000 and $80,000, while move-in ready housing can range from $150,000 to $300,000.
Many of the homes in Arlington have porches.

A mix of cultures and locally owned eateries
Considered by locals as a great spot for Nigerian food, Paparazzi Grill serves jollof rice, peppered fish and spicy chicken. Locals can get authentic Jamaican food and listen to a live DJ at the Blue Caribbean Bar & Lounge. For something a little different, K T’s Kitchen is known for its famous bean pies made with cream and sugar. Locals can relax at The Park Coffee and Tea for a fresh brew and flaky pastry. When it comes to everyday errands, a few corner stores sit within Arlington, including Montego Bay Bakery, K&K Mini Mart and the Island Food Market. Drivers can also head north to the Reisterstown Road Plaza to shop at big box stores such as Giant, Save A Lot and The Home Depot.

Baltimore City Public School programs and YMCA partnerships
Most students in Arlington will attend kindergarten through fifth grade at Arlington Elementary School, which is right in town. They can then attend Pimlico Elementary Middle School for sixth through eighth grade, which is about a 10-minute drive east to Cylburn. For ninth through twelfth, Baltimore allows students and parents to choose from a list of the area’s high schools. Forest Park High School is the nearest high school, which partners with the nearby YMCA. The YMCA helps create opportunities for students to explore college options, attend guest lectures and to start looking for job internships or earn community service hours. All three schools are graded a C-minus on Niche.

Nearby programs and adventures at C.C. Jackson Recreation Center
Dedicated to the community in the 1970s, the C.C. Jackson Recreation Center was named for Clarence Channing Jackson Jr., a former Baltimore City Recreation and Parks district supervisor. Today, the center is a free resource for registered residents with an outdoor pool, indoor dance room, lounge, game room and fitness center. The playground outside has swings and monkey bars, and the multi-purpose sports fields can be used throughout the day. “The intent for any rec center is not just for recreation, but to provide community support, to help the community celebrate daily activities, provide family services, and just to help uplift the community,” says Darryl Sutton, Chief of Recreation and Aquatics for the City of Baltimore. The center recently held a phlebotomy class, and it puts together resume writing programs and job fairs. Families can also play at Arlington Elementary’s playground or hold a football game on the field at Jack Paulsen Park.

Arlington’s inspiring community gardens and art pieces
Arlington Inspire Garden is the area’s little community space and greets visitors with its iconic stained-glass gateway. Local artist Mike Bowman, a backyard light artist with Formstone Castle Art, designed it. Partnering with Arlington Community Association President Bishop Troy Randall, he and Mike have helped to create the Arlington Inspire Garden Gate Sculpture and Arlington’s recently built Demeter Salad Garden, Khroma Herb Garden and Apollo Jazz Garden. “The Jazz Garden has a stage in it that has been used for community music nights. Farmer Chippy is well-regarded in the community; he’s an all-around hoot to talk to,” Bowman says. Farmer Chippy is a Northwest Baltimore celebrity and runs the non-profit Plantation Park Heights Urban Farm. “He’s been planting some greens in the Salad Garden already. In the Herb Garden, the flowers I made are based on Nigerian indigo, and so Farmer Chippy is planting indigo there.” Locals can find the gardens on Hayward Avenue and where Hayward meets Cuthbert and Denmore Avenues. “While doing this project, there’ve been so many people who come up to talk to you, and they’ll say, ‘Hey, put a park on my block!’” Bowman says. “Some people say that if you put something beautiful up in Baltimore, it’ll get ruined in five minutes, but that’s not true. In five years, the garden gate we put up at the Inspire Garden hasn’t been tampered with, hasn’t had one scratch. When you put something beautiful in a neighborhood that hasn’t had something beautiful in a while, they want it to stay.”
The Preakness Stakes horse race in May
There are several MTA Maryland bus stops in Arlington, so commuters may hop on a line at Park Heights Avenue, Reisterstown Road or West Belvedere Avenue. For those who prefer to take the train, the Rogers Avenue Metro Station on Hayward Avenue is about 1 mile south. The train can take passengers to Johns Hopkins Hospital in downtown Baltimore or north to Owings Mills near Garrison. Drivers can reach downtown Baltimore by driving 8 miles south via Interstate 83. For weekends away, the Baltimore Washington International Airport (BWI) is about 19 miles south via Interstate 695.
Navigating Northwest Baltimore and commutes downtown
The Pimlico Race Course hosts the Preakness Stakes event on the third Saturday of every May. This Grade 1 race is only surpassed by the Kentucky Derby for popularity and features thoroughbred racehorses from all over the country. Participants can bet on the race and cheer for their favored horse. The race was named for Preakness, a famous Massachusetts thoroughbred horse from the late 1800s.
