Parkville is a friendly, residential Baltimore suburb with tree-lined streets, parks, neighborhood restaurants and coffee shops, and a steady supply of short-term rentals — a comfortable, low-key place that feels like a real community rather than a transient stop.
A short drive puts you in Baltimore for museums, Inner Harbor dining, pro sports and major hospital systems (ideal for travel clinicians), while Washington, D.C. is also within easy reach for big-city museums, nightlife and airports — plenty to do on days off without giving up quieter suburban living.
