==Geography==
Brooklyn Park is located at {{coord|39|13|29|N|76|36|46|W|type:city}} (39.224857, &minus;76.612655)<ref name="GR1">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geographies/reference-files/time-series/geo/gazetteer-files.html|publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]]|access-date=2011-04-23|date=2011-02-12|title=US Gazetteer files: 2010, 2000, and 1990}}</ref> on the northern edge of [[Anne Arundel County, Maryland|Anne Arundel County]] and borders the city of [[Baltimore]] along its southern boundary of 1919. The CDP is bordered as well by [[Interstate 695 (Maryland)|Interstate 695]] (the Baltimore Beltway) to the south, by [[Maryland Route 648]] (Baltimore Annapolis Boulevard) to the west, and by the [[Patapsco River]], which forms the Anne Arundel County/[[Baltimore County, Maryland|Baltimore County]] boundary, to the northwest.

According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the CDP has a total area of {{convert|11.1|km2|disp=flip}}, of which {{convert|10.9|sqkm|disp=flip}} is land and {{convert|0.2|sqkm|disp=flip}}, or 1.65%, is water,<ref name="Census 2010"/> consisting largely of the Patapsco River and associated wetlands.

To the north of the CDP, are the older [[Baltimore, Maryland|Baltimore city]] neighborhoods of [[Brooklyn, Baltimore|Brooklyn]] (founded 1853), [[Curtis Bay, Baltimore|Curtis Bay]] (development proposed in 1874, buildings began in 1889), and several smaller communities that are now defunct: Fairfield, [[Masonville, Baltimore|Masonville]], [[Wagner's Point, Baltimore|Wagner's Point]] (also known as East Brooklyn), Arundel Cove, and [[Hawkins Point]]. To the northeast is the [[Baltimore County, Maryland|Baltimore County]] community of [[Baltimore Highlands, Maryland|Baltimore Highlands]], to the west is [[Linthicum, Maryland|Linthicum]], and to the south are [[Ferndale, Maryland|Ferndale]] and [[Glen Burnie, Maryland|Glen Burnie]].

The Brooklyn Park CDP in Anne Arundel County is composed of several smaller neighborhoods: old Brooklyn Park (west of Gov. Ritchie Highway - [[Maryland Route 2]]), Brooklyn Heights (east of Gov. Ritchie Highway), Arundel Village (along and north of Church Street), Roland Terrace (along and south of Church Street), Arundel Gardens (southwest of Gov. Ritchie Highway and south of Hammonds Lane), and Pumphrey, which lies along Belle Grove Road, south of the Patapsco River.

''A History of Brooklyn-Curtis Bay'', of approximately 200 pages, was published in September 1976, in celebration of the American Bicentennial by the members of the Brooklyn-Curtis Bay Historical Committee.<ref>''A History of Brooklyn-Curtis Bay,'' September 1976. Brooklyn-Curtis Bay Historical Committee, Hubert J. McCormick, general chairman; ed. Duane E. Tressler. 200 pp., illustrated</ref> Brooklyn Park has many different types of buildings such as schools and senior centers.
