    Columbia Information and Highlights

    Columbia is one of the best places to live in Maryland. Residents and visitors enjoy a community that is filled with cultural and social outlets, good quality education and numerous recreational opportunities. Columbia has been a model for other communities. The city offers a positive environment, which offers residents an opportunity to live, work and raise a family.

    The Rouse Company in the year 1963, made an announcement to the citizens of the Howard County, Maryland, that it had bought about 14,000 acres of land. The purpose of the land was to build a new city that will compare to another in the entire world. Within a period of nine months, the company went ahead to buy 140 separate properties, which is about one-tenth of the total land area of the community. The Rouse Company Chairman of the Board of Directors called James W. Rouse was able to explain what the new city, Columbia would look like. His plan was that the new city would be built from the scratch and it would avoid urban sprawl, the waste, and any other inconveniences that have come to typify spot development. The city that James was planning was structured in a way that it would generate jobs, proper healthcare, recreation, and numerous shopping options. The new city’s plan also includes a wide range of housing choices along with other vital facilities and services that people will need.

The first village was also named Wild Lake, and in the year 1967, the first residents of Columbia moved into the Village of Wilde Lake. The first industrial firm of Columbia is Hittman Associates.
