I lived in Columbia for a year. This was in 1983, it was very surreal. Mostly because it attracts a certain type of people who are not real. My parents lived there for 12 years. It was good for them after they down sized from a large house to a town home. My father's health was failing. Still I thought the neighbors were AI creatures who were there as part of a government experiment or sci-fi film.

I know what you mean I had to live in a hotel for a couple months in Columbia. I would walk my dog in the adjacent neighborhoods and wouldn’t see a single person outside.

As a kid, I love to watch the British TV show "The Avengers" It always took place in a deserted town. Very creepy

Yeah it’s not the most exciting place to live but there’s enough shit to do and you’re a short drive from two major cities. Life could be a lot worse than living in Columbia, Maryland. I’ve lived in all three: DC, Columbia, and now Bmore. I’ve hated none of them.
