Baltimore is an awesome city

LOL, you must have enjoyed the harbor area. The only cool places to visit in Baltimore is the harbor, fells point, and federal hill. The rest of the city, most of it, is just trashy and poor.

I enjoy all of it. I live near MICA

Besides those areas that I mentioned, Im just curious as to what else you like about Baltimore?

It's just fun. Keep in mind, I'm from the middle of nowhere:

Cumberland, ME 😛 I'm actually from North Yarmouth, which they don't have in their database, probably because there was NO crime there. And I'm betting the only reason theft is prevalent is because everyone leaves their doors unlocked all the time. Haha

I'm used to living outside the city, never in the city. The harbor is nice. Being walking distance from Orioles stadium is nice. Actually having stuff to do after dark is nice. Not the safest of all cities (duh), but it's fun.

And having the best team in football is awesome too 😛

I got off a wrong freeway exit and ended up in compton at 1am. I got back on the freeway as soon as I could.

If that were me I'd be backing my pastey ass back up the offramp at 40MPH.
 
I take the blue line through compton every day. It's not a great city but it's not like a murder zone or anything, the train rides definitely get interesting though. I think watts is probably worse (north of compton same train line). I wouldn't go either place at night though. And commerce casino is nowhere near compton, probably like 10 miles away.
 
I feel so heartless when I see the rape statistics and the first thing that comes to mind is a line from Blazing Saddles 🙁
