Does anybody here live or have lived in Baltimore?

[Big Bear]

What was your experience like?

Would you recommend it?

How does it differ from its close by neighbor Washington DC?

i am intrigued by this area. It looks like a very cool place to live.

How is the state of the economy there? Plenty of Jobs available?

my current gf lived there/near there for 2 years before we got together and i moved her back to where i am...she lived in towson... its expensive as fukk for what you get... older, smaller, but well built homes in her area.. downtown baltimore harbor area, about 15-20 min away, is actually quite nice...tons of restaurants overlooking the harbor...shopping.. nightclubs...baseball/football stadiums... its not what you expect when you hear "downtown baltimore" .. definitely some high dollar surrounding areas...

i think most people think of the city as being old run down ghetto/drugs/poor etc.. its like any other place where you have to go off the beaten path in order to find shit like you see in movies or tv...

couple-2.5 hour drive to atlantic city and a little more to new york...its really a nice place to live if you dont mind spending more, things getting pricey and winters being mean as a mother fukker

i wouldnt hop up and move there without having a job lined up, but if i needed to work, i dont think i would move anywhere without having something lined up

Baltimore is a poor city with a few pockets of wealth. North Baltimore is great, Towson, Roland Park, Guilford are all very nice areas, but you do not have to go far to find the rough spots.

There are are jobs, mainly services and healthcare. It is expensive to live in a safe area of the city.

There's lots of crime and drug activity just like DC. Most people are hard working and friendly.
