Arbutus, Maryland: 45 minutes from Washington D.C., and a drive from Baltimore. 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) Arbutus, Maryland is a town that sits on the outskirts of a big city like Baltimore, Maryland but retains its identity as a suburb. Arbutus may have a population of 20 thousand plus residents, but there is a lot to do and see within driving distance of the town. What I like about ...Read More Arbutus is that it is close to a major interstate highway, and allows for the opportunity to enjoy the nightlife, culture, professional sports teams like the Baltimore Orioles and Baltimore Ravens.
