Highlights
During the late 1800s, Clarksville served as a small rural town with a post office, blacksmiths and various stores catering to the surrounding farming community. Today, Clarksville is defined by the intersection of routes 108 and 32, with the community itself acting as a crossroads where Maryland Howard County's busy suburban side meets its more rural and open landscape. It still serves as a local commercial hub for the outlying area, but it has managed to balance open space and rolling hills as it continues to grow.
