I've been to all the counties that you listed in MD.
As said earlier in the thread, Frederick County will almost certainly flip in 2020. The city of Frederick is kind of becoming the progressive hub of western MD, and it just ousted a Republican mayor. The County also elected a Democratic County Executive in 2014.
Harford and Carroll are historically R counties that are still pretty rigidly partisan. White voters in these counties behave more like whites in PA. They are also not very diverse. Harford though appears to be trending D in the long term, so it could flip sometime in the next few election cycles.
Calvert and St. Mary's counties have a weird history. They are ancestrally D counties that have voted R since 1980, but still usually vote for Steny Hoyer when he runs for reelection. They're basically a part of the south.
