Disappointment - 3/22/2010
We moved to Annapolis a little over two years ago and I must say it has not been as good as I hoped. There is a huge huge income disparity, it is not integrated at all and there are projects all over the city. The historical buildings and potential of the town are marred by strip malls and terrible civil engineering.
We send our son to the only good public school in the city as we want him to be well rounded but as it is the only good school the children are all spoiled brats and the houses in that area are all over priced. We are both from what people consider expensive areas in the North but what you get for your money there compared to here is astounding. Where $800,000 would buy you a beautiful historical house with a nice yard in New England, here it buys you a new poorly made house on a tenth of an acre.
This is a beautiful city but it is NOT for everyone so do your research before moving here! Oh and the drivers are horrendous. They don't

Great quality of life - 5/18/2009
Wonderful opportunities for folks who live in 'water priviliged' or water access communities around Annapolis. The Chesapeake bay is beautiful year-round, but you need to live in a neighborhood that has water access, because fewer than 5% of the Bay's shoreline miles are publicly

because so many people are transient. They invite you to go for a sail or play tennis immediately. It is very expensive to live in Annapolis. I have lived in New Hampshire where people are not friendly and consider you an "outsider" if you weren't born there. Annapolis is beautiful and

Living in Annapolis - 7/5/2008
Somehow I doubt that the median price for a home in annapolis is $675K or that the cost of living is more than 40% above the U.S. average. What sources do you use? My sources are "just paying asttention" and I am sure I have a wide margin of error on some things.

Living in annapolis - 5/3/2008
Annapolis is a historic, beautiful and friendly place to live. It has all of the cultural and educational opportunities one could ask for. The one drawback is the cost of living and especially housing. Recreational with the water so near is amazing. It truly is a wonderful place to live but costly if you are on a fixed
