Baltimore, MD is known as the \"Charm City\" for its vibrant culture and fun attractions. Those living in or visiting Baltimore have plenty to enjoy, with numerous museums, galleries, parks, restaurants, and outdoor activities. The Inner Harbor is a popular destination in Maryland's largest city; it features a plethora of shops, restaurants, an aquarium, and views of the harbor from the National Aquarium. While visiting Baltimore visitors can also take advantage of visits to Fort McHenry and The Walters Art Museum.
The reviews of Baltimore speak for themselves: many people rave about how much there is to do and how beautiful the city is. Visitors say that they are always surprised by how much there is to explore in such a small area; although some areas may be slightly run-down or neglected, there are still plenty of great places to go and things to see. People love the seafood restaurants around the harbor and the quaint coffee shops sprinkled throughout the city. They're also impressed with all the cool street art they find while walking around town. There's so much life and energy in this city that it's hard not to be charmed by it!

Friends School of Baltimore :-) - 12/9/2016
et al,
Despite the other comments you may read I hope you take note of a different experience. My son is currently attending Friends School of Baltimore. This is his first year participating in a privately ran school. I can honestly say that this school has changed my son's educational experience for the better. The teachers and faculty have been child's champion as they are with all the children equally. They are kind, understanding, informative and flexible. They have made my son enjoy school again and trusted adults in his life.
Thank you, Friend's Teachers and Faculty for a great

Undervalued real estate - 8/21/2015
There is much beautiful housing here for surprisingly little money (if you come from any big coastal city I can think of). Lincoln, Nebraska may be less expensive. Baltimore's problems are famous, but in many ways -- museums, music, art / music schools, inner harbor, food scene, some effort to address the problems without just sweeping them away by pushing them to the margins and giving their area a different city name. . . . Lousy public education for the most part and not really functioning public transportation, so you'll need a car and private schools for your kids unless you want to get involved in the school system to help fix it. . . It's sad, because Baltimore is otherwise a great (and improving) town.

Health Care - 10/24/2013
Maryland has some of the best health care programs in the USA. They include prestigious places like Johns Hopkins Medical Center as well as the chains including the one where I work-Medstar. There are speciality programs including the National Hand Center and the Donor Sites like University of Maryland in Baltimore. Health Care is easy access in Baltimore by bus and Community hospitals offer free services as well through their community health financial programs.

Cost of Lliving in Baltimore - 9/20/2013
Baltimore county was once a fair place to live in. Not any more. the cost of living in the county has skyrocketed Leaving it's middle class, hard working citizens fighting to pay their bills, send their children to school, and buy food, health care ect.
Crime has gong up in the county, even in what was once "nice neighborhoods".Cell Phone thefts are up, destruction of property, robberies and even assault, rape and murder. Illicit drug use is fairly high. Add that now to the fact that the county shut down many factories that kept families going, like Sparrows point and General motors. With the shut down of these two factories alone, families began struggling and many moved away. Then came the tearing down of General motors, the projects on the city county line, and RATS moved into the county neighborhoods. To combat this problem , however, the county decided to cut the number of trash collection days, and spend its money sending out inspectors to see if trash can lids were on

Great Place For Section Eight Voucher Holders-Not - 3/6/2012
I have lived in Baltimore City/County all my life and have worked very hard only to see that the only people receiving help are those that refuse to work or the people that buddy up with the social workers so they can recieve benefits illegally. The cost of living here is sky high and jobs have stopped giving employees cost of living increases to accomodate the rise. Not to mention the apartments and houses here are ridiculously over-priced for the garbage that they offer! The school system here is great for children in magnet schools or private schools. The traffic, not as bad as some states, just plan ahead. And the night life becomes repetitive. So most Baltimorians travel to DC to party. THe city cries broke however the red light cameras speed cameras and new laws are earning millions in revenue! They are doing a pretty decent job rebuilding downtown Baltimore, I must say, but I'd hate to go in detail as to why....its home to me and I love my Ravens but I'm currently looking for

Baltimore as a Whole - 12/23/2011
Yes its a really good city... People have always based Baltmore of what they have seen on the wire and thats not the case. Yes there maybe crime here but no more than that of other cities. I have lived in Baltimore all of my life and quite frankly all of this crap that unexperienced people talk about gets on my last nerve. Most people actually fall in love with city and nine times out of ten do not get their lives threatened so people grow up, sit back and relax, and enjoy this charming
