I think Baltimore's pretty great now. I often find myself desperately wishing the University of Maryland could somehow be relocated to Baltimore so that I could live in an actual city.
Wow! Fake city? D.C. has more humans living in it than Baltimore does. And there's a whole heck of a lot more to this city than the federal government...
Sure, about 20,000 more people, and the DC metropolitan area certainly has more people. I'm not sure why you're assuming that I'm completely ignorant of what there is to do in DC; I've lived here for two years. I just like that there's actually tall buildings in Baltimore, parts of town with lots of fun bars with people who aren't networking while wearing collared shirts, residents who will talk to strangers without requiring a letter of reference from at least two sitting members of Congress, the idea of having people who are actually "locals", and smiling. I miss seeing people smiling
I've seen all those things in Baltimore
