Anne Arundel County: Anne Arundel County is located on the Chesapeake Bay between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. The county features 534 miles of shoreline, offerring waterfront living to many residential communities. Annapolis, the state capital and the sailing capital of America, is a major tourist attraction for the state and the county.

Diverse and growing companies benefit from a location shared with Annapolis, the state capital, and government facilities such as the U.S. Naval Academy and the National Security Agency. Anne Arundel County is also fortunate to house the Baltimore/Washington International Airport (BWI) located in the northwest section of the county. BWI is the largest airport in the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area and is considered one of Maryland's most important economic engines.

Considered a setting where one of the most modern cities in the world site side-by-side with a city older than the republic itself.
