description title image

Named for the beautiful flowers that appear each springtime. Violetville is a well-kept Baltimore neighborhood that has retained the charm and friendless first exhibited when it was a small, country village. Springtime also turns the focus to "Field Day," a parade that signals the start of the adult and little-league sports season. These teams take advantage of the large neighborhood park that features several fields, courts, playgrounds, and even a refreshment stand. Bordering residential Violetville are an office and business park, and industrial park, and a commercial area straddling the conveniently located I-95 corridor (Caton Avenue Exit). For residents, this can mean a short walk to work or public transportation.

Many residents take pride in this family-oriented community (where some have lived their whole lives) and work toward ever increasing the quality of living and schooling that underlie this neighborhood's stability and success. We encourage you to visit us and to make your next home Violetville.
