Rossville is a suburban neighborhood alongside I-95
Located just outside the Baltimore Beltway loop, the Maryland community of Rossville offers plentiful suburban amenities without sacrificing proximity to the city. “The big draw is the neighborhood’s central location right off of Interstate 95,” says Betty Klepetka, a lifelong Baltimore County resident and Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty. “The school district is popular with families, and it’s right by [White Marsh Mall], so there’s great shopping.” Many residents move here to be close to the large MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center or the Community College of Baltimore County’s Essex campus, both of which are in the community. With the Inner Harbor 10 miles away, Rossville residents can experience all Baltimore has to offer from a quiet suburban base.

Houses with more space compared to Baltimore properties
Rossville has a mix of apartments, single-family homes, townhouses and condos. The oldest options were built in the early 1960s, with regular new construction since 2000. Single-family options like ranch style, split-level and new traditional homes feature mid-sized lawns and driveways on winding suburban cul-de-sacs. Recent sales prices range from around $300,000 to $750,000, depending on lot size and number of bedrooms. “It’s more about the size of the home than the lot for folks who move here,” Klepetka says. “The yards aren’t particularly large, but the available houses are bigger than the ones in the city, which is more favorable for young families.” Most recent condo and townhouse sales range between $175,000 and $400,000. Rossville’s average home value of around $350,000 is about $100,000 less than the average for the Baltimore metro area.

Education varies from Baltimore County Public Schools to community college
Students in Rossville can attend Victory Villa Elementary School, which gets a B-minus grade from Niche, followed by Nottingham Middle School. The school opened in 2024, so Niche hasn’t rated it yet. Students continue to the C-plus-rated Overlea High School, which serves as a health sciences magnet academy for students interested in pursuing careers in fields such as nursing or emergency medicine. Rossville is also home to the Community College of Baltimore County Essex, the largest of CCBC’s six campuses.
The school fosters a nurturing and inclusive learning environment.

Two interstates provide access to Baltimore
Rossville is a car-dependent neighborhood with Maryland Transit Administration buses stopping throughout. Interstate 95, Interstate 695 and U.S. Route 40 all pass through Rossville, providing plenty of ways to get around the community and the greater Baltimore area. “The nice thing about the area is that you’re maybe a 20-minute commute into downtown,” Klepetka says. Downtown Baltimore and The Johns Hopkins Hospital are about 8 miles southwest, Johns Hopkins University is less than 10 miles west, and Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport is 21 miles southwest. MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center in Rossville is a full-service hospital.
