Howard County is one the most wealthy counties in Maryland and one of the top in the nation. Known as "Hoco," the majority of people that make up the county are lax players, including the #1 ranked team in the nation for the past 6 years from Mt.Hebron. Other recognitions include: Ellicott City and Columbia which were both ranked in the top 25 places to live in the US, along with the county being nominated as "Sportstown USA" by Sports illustrated in 2004, and ranked as one of the top counties in public schools in the nation. Most residents are upper-middle class yuppies, however you do find your "ghetto" areas. But then again, compared to some other places, our ghetto looks pretty good. There's definitely a lot of diversity too, especially with the "asian invasion." Most parents in the county both work, but the stay at home moms are the soccer moms that show up to their kids games wearing designer clothes and ready to scream until they lose their voices. The top schools in sports are Riverhill, Mt. Hebron, Centennial and Glenelg, but with two new schools built in the past 3 years, redistricting might change those dynasties. Although the kids are all jaded by the Columbia Mall, the Howard County Fair, and whatever else there is to do there, you're guaranteed to get drunk or high any weekend you want.
Lax rules the county, all the kids try to satisfy their boredom, you know if you're from Howard County, you're gonna end up living here...its just that kinda place

Howard County. Columbia is one of the most richest places to live these days. What others do not realize is how Columbia is classed by schools. You have River Hill, which is know for being arrogant and wealthy. You have Oakland Mills, which is know for being "ghetto". You have Hammod, which apparently is known to either be white trash or country. Theres also Glenelg, which is out in the middle of no where, considering where everyone else is. There are also many others. I geuss the point I am trying to establish is that Oakland Mills is seen as a "ghetto" I am not saying it is not because I am sure it is, but it seems to get the bad rep. Where as you have Hammond who has a teacher who sells pot to students and River Hill whose teacher just got caught with meth and GHB. Now my question is where do you find that at Oakland Mills? Yes Oakland Mills has had there fair share of problems, such as grade changing but that on where compares to teachers and drugs, thank you. What people do not realize is that where you go to school does not really matter, your getting an education just like everyone else. Who really cares wheither you go to a rich school or a poor one, your getting the same education. So the next time you write a definition take everything into consideration, we live in a bubble where everything is classed and it seems to stay that way for one reason, people like you who decide to class people. And for the article about the "asian invasion" and black wannabes , the reason as I stated before Columbia will not change because of people like you.

Where everyone is always stuck up everyones ass. Nosey and think that they are perfect. Everyone lives their little second rate life and think their big shit because they are upper middle class. Violent area where you fall asleep to gun shots and hope nobody kills your dog while your asleep. With schools so old that your grandparents went to.
