My hometown ❤️ Born in Baltimore, raised in London, England. Have been back many times and loved every visit. Sure there's problems but the city feels alive and lived in still unlike some of the major cities like London or New York.

I graduated from the historic HBCU, Morgan State University located in Baltimore in 1978. Baltimore in 2023 is a HELL hole plagued with violence, shootings, and car-jackings. If someone were to give me a free home in the Canton - Fells Point neighborhoods not too far from Johns Hopkins University Hospital in East Baltimore, I wouldn't take it.

I grew up in Baltimore but got out as soon as I could. You didn't mention heroin, murder or crabs!

Was a great place, but the deindustrialization brutalized the city. The Harbor has lost most of it's businesses too, and their are countless destroyed ghettos where people languish amidst collapsed infrastructure.

Even the weather sucks in Baltimore storms for 7 days straight

Is Baltimore hometown of heavyweight boxer Evander Holyfield?

Dude - you completely missed Fort McHenry where Francis Scott Key wrote the Start Spangled Banner during the War of 1812

Worth to explore.. but is it worth living?

Been watching The Wire so I was curious

I'm from bmore and it sucks. Sucks bad. There's a reason the population is on the decline. Weather sucks, cops are corrupt, people arnt friendly. The only people who like bmore are the idiots who have never been anywhere to compare it to. The only reason it's still alive is because it's managed to feed off dirty governmet money coming from D.C Mostly from the people who are forced to live between the two cities who work at one of the million defense companies. But those people have second homes in Florida to escape the winter and poverty stricken city so money can continue to flow outside of the places that need it the most. The worst part is anyone well traveled moves away leaving a city full of ignorant people who all think the same and can't tell u a single redeeming fact about bmore that u couldn't find in any other city. It's devoid of art, mayor was fired for corruption who also fired the police commisioner a few years back, there are no clubs, (if u count fells or fed hill ur an idiot). I'd say Gothem is worse but at least they have Batman.
