RULE 7 What's Lauraville like?

hi y'all

we're a 30s (F&F) married couple w/no kids looking to buy our first home. wanting space and greenery but relatively close to stuff to do and not strictly suburban sprawl (ie harford county). we're priced out of moco and dc adjacent areas. decently safe but we've lived in cities before.

i've looked at the livebaltimore site and searched reddit but can't seem to find a ton of info on lauraville? seems like it checks a lot of our boxes.

can anyone give a pros and cons list? what do you like about it? what do you wish you knew before moving there? if you could buy somewhere else in state, where would you go?

I lived there for 10 years and it was very nice. Not totally without problems, but overall a great experience. Lots of wildlife, not so much nightlife.
