Westside Homes for Rent

Westside in Salisbury, MD, features a mix of homes from the 1930s and ‘40s, including beige and white minimal traditional cottages and vinyl-façade bungalows on 6,000-square-foot lots. The neighborhood has gravel and grass driveways, chain link fencing, and some three-bedroom ranch styles with wooden fishing docks along Johnson Pond. However, properties near the Wicomico River are in a flood zone due to frequent overflows. Local amenities include a paddleboat launch on Rose Street into Johnson Pond, where residents can fish for largemouth bass and bluegill. For beach outings, locals often drive 35 miles east to Ocean City or Assateague State Park. Children in Westside attend Charles H. Chipman Elementary School, Salisbury Middle School, and Wicomico High School, which offer high ratings and dual enrollment classes with Salisbury University. Downtown Salisbury, less than a mile away, features red-brick sidewalks, locally owned restaurants, and nightlife spots like Brew River. The Salisbury Riverwalk and the 100-acre Salisbury City Park with its zoo are notable attractions. Essential services and shopping are available at Salisbury Plaza, and the Perdue Farms poultry processing plant provides significant local employment. Parks like Lake Street Park and Billy Gene Jackson Sr. Park offer recreational facilities, including playgrounds, sports courts, and community events.
