Welcome to Aberdeen Hills, Aberdeen, Maryland

If you’re considering a move to Aberdeen, I’d like to introduce you to Aberdeen Hills — a community with its own character, a mix of housing options, and proximity advantages that make it worthy of your attention.

Community Snapshot & Location

Aberdeen Hills is a populated place within or immediately adjacent to the City of Aberdeen in Harford County. It sits to the north of much of downtown Aberdeen and is considered part of the broader Aberdeen market area.  Geographically, Aberdeen Hills enjoys convenient access to the city’s road networks, and it benefits from the amenities and infrastructure of Aberdeen while retaining some of the more residential, neighborhood-feeling attributes.

Historical & Local Background

Aberdeen itself dates back to colonial times, initially known as part of plantation or farm lands, and later becoming more settled as transportation links (roads, roads to Baltimore, railroads) became important. The City of Aberdeen was incorporated in 1892, evolving from agricultural and small-village roots into a city connected by rail and road.

Over the decades, Aberdeen’s growth absorbed adjacent subdivisions and neighborhoods, including the area now known as Aberdeen Hills. Historic maps of Aberdeen Hills show that over time it shifted from more rural parcels, small farm plots, and early roads to a denser grid of residential streets. You can view layered historical maps online to see how streets, lots, and boundaries changed over decades.

Nearby historic homes in Aberdeen include Poplar Hill (built mid-18th century), the James B. Baker House (Queen Anne style, built 1896), and Chestnut Ridge (circa 1810) — all part of the architectural heritage of the area.

The Aberdeen Historical Museum, located at 2 S. Rogers Street in Aberdeen, preserves archives, photos, and artifacts that relate to Aberdeen’s evolution and is open on a limited schedule (Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays). Visitors can explore how Aberdeen’s neighborhoods developed over time and how infrastructure, commerce, and civic buildings shaped the city.

Schools & Educational Note

For those interested, public school assignments fall under Harford County Public Schools and the Aberdeen zone. However, school boundaries can change over time, so I strongly recommend verifying current assignments directly through the school district or boundary maps before making decisions based on school zoning.
