Villages of Urbana offers an optimized lifestyle for southern Frederick County families
In southern Frederick County, just north of Montgomery County, the master-planned community Villages of Urbana offers an optimized lifestyle for D.C. commuters and their families. “It’s just an incredible place to live and raise a family,” says Stacy Delisle, a resident since 2007 and associate broker with Impact Maryland Real Estate. “It’s a real sweet spot with all the wonderful things you look for in a place to live - excellent schools, excellent amenities, a great community vibe and just access to anything, whether it’s activities, groceries, other locally owned businesses.” As she’s raised her children in the neighborhood, Delisle’s found it easy to get involved in the community and emphasizes that the community aspect is what keeps so many families there. “The community is large enough that it’s impossible to know everyone, but it is tightknit. Just down the road, a 55-plus community just finished being built, and a lot of grandparents of the children here will live there. When we talk about tightknit, that’s the kind of thing that’s happening. People talk about six degrees of separation, but between sports and class and youth groups and whatever, Urbana’s probably two degrees at most.”
Villages of Urbana offers an optimized lifestyle for southern Frederick County families, blending top-rated schools, modern amenities, walkable neighborhoods, and a strong sense of community for everyday comfort and connection.

A lot of my clients are people selling a townhouse and buying a single-family home and staying put there. I have a lot of move-up clients. There are also empty nesters downsizing. Some of them sell their single-family home and buy a townhouse because they don’t want to leave the area.”
