The Dobbin Road corridor in particular has been hard hit over the past few years, according to the Howard County Police Department, but no one appears to be panicking about graffiti just yet.
The amount of graffiti in Columbia has increased in the last decade—but authorities here are hesitant to characterize it as a serious problem. Since 2000, there has been a 25 percent increase in graffiti in Columbia, according to Daniel D’Amore, director for open space management for Columbia Association. "It is seasonal, with more activity noted in the summer," D'Amore said. "But it also tends to be area- or neighborhood-specific for a while, and then things quiet down as the kid or kids responsible for it grow out of it or move on."

Michael Price, commander of the Operational Preparedness Division…
