Slow-paced life 30 miles from Baltimore
It’s a slow-paced lifestyle in the rural town of Jarrettsville, where locals enjoy the wide open spaces of their yards and adjoining farmland. The hub of this laid back community 30 miles north of Baltimore revolves around the town center, home to local businesses and other small town resources like the local library, sheriff’s office and fire department. William Stevenson, Realtor with Long & Foster Real Estate and owner of Jarrettsville Creamery & Deli, has called Jarrettsville home since 1978. He says it’s that small-town feel that has kept him and his wife there for decades. “It’s a tight-knit community and everyone is very friendly,” says Stevenson. “We always help each other out and it just feels like home.”

Lack of highways and speeding traffic
There are no major highways in or near Jarrettsville, so the roads are typically slow and steady. It’s about a 30-mile drive south to Baltimore with no heavily-trafficked roads until commuters reach Interstate 695 about halfway to the city.
Local sunflower fundraiser
Residents look out for one another in Jarrettsville through local fundraisers. Jarrettsville Creamery & Deli raises funds twice a week for anything from local schools to youth sports teams. “Whenever we have fundraisers, they are very well supported and the community really gets involved and engaged,” Stevenson says. One of the town’s biggest fundraisers of the year is called Sunflowers in Jarrettsville, organized by local churches and businesses. Folks from all over come to visit the sunflower field across from the sheriff’s office. “It’s a really big thing we do every year,” says Stevenson, “Thousands upon thousands of people come and all the proceeds go back into the community to assist people who just need some help, such as a house fire.”
