Golf in Edgewood

Edgewood is a Harford County community within the Aberdeen Proving Ground corridor, where the federal installation's extensive landholdings shape the surrounding civilian geography. Exton Golf Course operates as part of the APG recreational facilities on the installation's southern sector, serving the military and government civilian population concentrated in this part of Harford County. The upper Chesapeake Bay's influence is felt throughout Edgewood—the Bush River and Gunpowder River both empty into the Bay within short distances, and the flat coastal plain terrain reflects the transition from piedmont to tidal shoreline. The Edgewood Arsenal's legacy—a separate installation that merged with APG—and the ongoing research mission give the surrounding civilian community a defense-focused economic character that shapes the recreational golf market here.
