Crofton
Moving to Crofton? Crofton was named by Money magazine as one of “100 Best Places to Live” in the United States. Crofton placed 72nd out of 100 cities on the list. It was selected for its relative anonymity while still boasting many major amenities, excellent schools, and sought after location.
Community life frequently revolves around Crofton Parkway, actually a scenic loop 3.5 miles long, tangentially touching the larger “triangle” made up of three nearby roads, which encloses the original Crofton community.
Crofton Parkway is the scene of yearly parades, two of the community’s five elementary schools, the Town Hall, Village Green, community events, Crofton Country Club, and walkers, joggers and bikers around the loop. The Crofton area now extends North from the triangle, including Crofton Park. Crofton also has a community pool, the Crofton Swim and Tennis Club [CSTC] but is restricted to those inhabitants of the triangle.
Originally an exclusive gated community, Crofton’s gates were opened and they now only serve as a symbol for this community just off Route 3. As of the 2000 census, the total population of the Crofton ZIP code was 20,091. Now the population in Crofton is around 30,000.
