Featured Listing Friday - Featured Community:  Catonsville, MD - Hillcrest Elementary School Attendance Area.  As I have noted before, if you are searching for a home in Maryland by school, it's not always an easy task.  Not all agents list the schools in the MLS, so if you limit your search by school, you may be missing a number of potential homes.  Also, not all agents list neighborhoods in the MLS, so you can't limit using that parameter either.

The best way, in Maryland, to search for a home in a particular school's attendance area is to first search by zip code, and then use the school district's tool to check if a home is in the attendance boundary for that school.  In some instances, particularly for middle and high schools, you may have to search by more than one zip code.  If this is your situation, it would benefit you to call me and ask me the best way to search for a home for the specific school you are considering.

Below you will find the attendance map for Hillcrest Elementary School in Catonsville, MD.  You will also find a link to Baltimore County Public School's (BCPS) tool to check the schools for a home.  The information provided concerning school boundaries can change from year to year, and should always be independently verified with the school district.  The phone number to verify school boundaries in Baltimore County is 410-887-4215.

If you have any questions about searching for homes in the Hillcrest Elementary School Attendance Area, please don't hesitate to give me a call.  I grew up in Catonsville, and I know the neighborhoods well.  I know that schools matter to you, and what matters to you, matters to me.
