    I would like to look for housing in Jessup, MD. Does anyone have any opinions or warnings? Is there any weird gun laws that is only pertaining to Jessup like Montgomery counties and Annapolis no ammo shipping?

    Its very expensive to live there seeing as how close you would be to 2A Sales. Not a bad area, some of the benefits of living near Columbia without the costs. Like anywhere there are places to avoid but overall its decent. YMMV

    Not great, you still have to go way south to hit the metro. I'd recommend looking into the MARC train from Savage.

    I'll second the MARC train. It's a decent price. I took it from Dorsey Station which is prob a bit north for you but it got me to Union Station (2 metro stops from Metro Center in the middle of DC) in about 35-40 minutes, and I would rather do that than drive 30 minutes to Greenbelt or Glenmont Stations.

    It's mostly a more rural area with larger properties. There are several new housing developments that are more suburban. There are still smaller farms in the area. The Marc station off 100. You would want to take either rt 1 or 295 north up to 100 and then I think it's the first exit. Not a long drive at all without traffic. It's a nice area and very pretty. You still have crime from both Columbia and Ft. Meade. 175 sucks during rush hour.

    When you think about it, probably half of the population of Jessup resides in those lovely facilities.

    Dorsey Run Correctional Facility just opened the second complex.

    I live in Jessup on the HC side. So you have access to good schools there. I am moving to the AA side of Jessup soon and the school districts change drastically. :( Don't know if you have school age kids, but that one thing that hit us. 2A sales is minutes from my current house. I like Jessup as it is cheaper than Columbia, but you are still close to everything on the HC side. AA side were I am moving is more expensive, but still convenient to all the major routes.
