Frederick County Businesses Continue to Grow

By: Villages of Urbana

We know that Frederick County is already an incredible place to live and work – that could even be why Villages of Urbana was named the “Best-Selling Community in Maryland.”  Now, with the latest news in the business sector of this region, there’s even more reason to move to Villages of Urbana!

According to an article published by the Frederick News-Post, businesses continued to grow in Frederick County over the last year, including everything from “retail and hospitality to bioscience and other industries.”  Blaine Young, president of Frederick County Commissioners, notes that the business outlook is tremendously positive, which has brought more companies to this region.

With the uptick of new businesses comes a better employment rate.  Currently, Frederick County’s unemployment rate is faring better than the state’s average, hovering around and below 5%.  Wages for this area have also been steadily increasing – over the last five years, Frederick County wages have increased by 6.7%.  These factors certainly play a role when homebuyers are looking for a town to relocate to, and for many, they find their new home at Villages of Urbana.

Our community is in a prime location, greatly benefiting our residents in many ways.  Those who own a new townhome at Villages of Urbana will be able to work in the thriving Frederick County, with their new jobs only a short distance away.

But it’s not only future employees who benefit from business growth – it’s the residents as well.  Everything from new restaurants to small stores and services have continuously grown, much thanks to the local residents who shop there.  This allows for even more businesses to open, giving the most options to customers in the area.  At Villages of Urbana, our market district features many shops that are convenient to residents.  The neo-traditional design of our community makes living so incredibly easy!

And of course, we couldn’t forget about the other amenities for Villages of Urbana residents!  Pools, playgrounds, walking trails, tennis courts, a library and an elementary school are all readily available for homeowners and their families to enjoy.  With the positive business outlook in the area, along with the beautiful new townhomes for sale at Villages of Urbana, our community is the place to be for first-time homeowners and growing families alike.
