Thank you for featuring Baltimore and doing the city justice! Baltimore also has a Streetcar Museum featuring every type of streetcar that ran in the city. This makes it the only major city in the U.S. to have multiple active train museums actually located in the urban core and reachable by frequent transit and intercity passenger rail.
@imnotsqiddy Good Food, History, great architecture, decent nightlife, ethnic neighborhoods, unique festivals.if youre a water person, there's plenty of that too.
Crime is definitely an issue and shouldn’t be discounted. When people say “it’s not that bad” it’s doing a disservice to the people. There’s a lot of people in a bad spot and dysfunctional aspects to the city. BUT it’s not the full story. There’s a lot of beautiful areas in the city, a great food scene and great art/music culture. So there’s definitely problems, but I love it.
@@calebwilfordMt. Vernon, Mt. Royal, Penn Station area is historically valuable, gives off a college town flair (because 2 universities are nearby), and is core to Baltimore's art and entertainment. Can't wait for Artscape.
Who knew Baltimore had so much history! Thank you for the history lesson and all the lovely information about this wonderful city. Can't wait to see it for myself.
Thanks for highlighting another underrated city!! I’ve flown in and out of Baltimore many times but need to explore more of the city! Always love your overviews!!
Another fine addition to your growing collection. I love how all the museums and attractions are close together. That harbor is beautiful. Baltimore doesn’t get very much positive attention these days so I’m glad you showed us all the high points and beautiful features. From David in Houston. Btw: I’m so glad you are still producing these. 😮I know it takes a lot of work to make such high quality videos. I’ve got some catching up to do so Now on to Anchorage and Portland! ⭐️🏆🥇😎♥️👍🏙🌠
I'm from the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia area) and Baltimore is basically known as the East Coast version of Oakland (DC being like San Francisco in this analogy), a roughhewn, deindustrialized, disinvested husk of a major old industrial port city that has tons of crime, poverty, corruption and generational dysfunction but also is slowly rising and reinventing itself as being more creative, colorful, quirky and full of character than its more famous neighbor. Its people are fiercely proud and hard-working and many folks working in the DC area (especially in the Maryland suburbs) have moved to Baltimore over the last 20-25 years because it's so much cheaper and still offers extensive urban amenities and easy access to DC and its environs.
People like you see Baltimore as a cheap alternative to DC and have sucked the soul, personality, and identities out of many neighborhoods, while increasing living costs for us all. This isnt recent by the way, this has been a significant issue through Baltimore City's 21st century existence.
Being from the DMV myself, never once have I ever heard anyone compare DC and Baltimore to Oakland and San Francisco. Iv worked in, gone out to the bars, gone to the sporting events in Baltimore and DC, in all 3 Scenarios I have enjoyed going to Baltimore way more and actually don’t like going to DC at all anymore. Just my opinion as someone who lives in the Howard county area
Definitely check out areas like Federal hill, Fells point, Canton, and the new Baltimore peninsula. All great safe locations for food and drinks. Go to an Os or Ravens game!
This is your first new video since I subscribed (which I did immediately after discovering it!), and it’s fitting because I love Baltimore! Let’s go O’s! Meanwhile, don’t sell the skyline short. One thing I love to do when visiting a city is find an iconic vantage point for viewing and photographing the skyline. Baltimore’s Federal Hill Park is one of the best such spots in the country. Lastly, I’ll put in a plug for you to do a video on Norfolk, VA. VA Beach has a bigger population, but Norfolk is the historic core city of the Hampton Roads metro area. Thanks for the great videos!
Thanks for the comment and for subscribing!! And I appreciate the tip on a good place to view the Baltimore skyline from. And I’ll add Norfolk to the queue 😊
Thank you so very much. I miss being able to go there since moving away. Think you missed the Science Center. That is always changing and kids love being able to try some of the Science offered. It's on the Inner Harbor and around the time the Aquarium was added. Not sure which came first. Or both together. Thanks for making this video. 👍💙😊
New Jersey PA NYC Boston Connecticut "true East Coast" Baltimore & DC & the DMV "eastcoast with southern influence Pittsburgh & buffalo " Midwest cities with high eastcoast influence" The closer you are to the water the more European influence The more you are in the "true eastcoast area " you see more Puerto Ricans And because DC and Baltimore are at the mason Dixon line they have so many southern qualities while being a eastcoast city
Just like any other city, there are areas that are dangerous but if you stay in the right areas it is good. Iv lived here for a couple years now and have never had a problem or felt in danger. Some really nice areas to visit is Inner harbor, Federal hill, Locust point, Fells point, Canton. All great spots for food, drinks and a lot of history. I’d definitely recommend going to an O’s or Ravens game, both incredible experiences! Hope you stop by!
2.8 million people, really...more like 1.6 million unless you are going onto the Eastern Shore across the Bay Bridge or Columbia in Howard County or at the D.C. suburbs or up near the Pennsylvania state line.
Interestingly, a city is more than it's buildings, great as they may be. In Baltimore, most of us stay away from the areas in your video because of who's walking along it's streets.
That's... not true. (Unless you're racist.) The inner harbor is a great place to walk around and hang out, visit shops, bars, etc. There are plenty of nice condos on the water and plenty of well-off families live in the nearby neighborhoods like federal hill. There are plenty of unsafe neighborhoods in Baltimore, but most of the places covered in this video do not fall into that category.
@@henlo1910 I worked in South Baltimore for 32 years, I have a bit of perspective. Calling people racist because they speak the uncomfortable truth doesn't work anymore. Stick to the tourist type things and you'll be fine, but a lot of Baltimore is a mess. Bad leadership is driving folks away, population declines every year. Every year. Except to those million dollar condos on the waterfront and well off neighborhoods like Roland Park, where folks can insulate themselves.
@@henlo1910I'd disagree only about the Inner Harbor. The past decade has seen the degradation of Harborplace, The Gallery, Skywalk, and more. A tourist's time is worth more exploring one of our unique neighborhoods instead of the declining Inner Harbor.
We have enough people who aren’t from here moving here and making more money than those of us who lived here all our lives stop promoting this city locals can’t afford to even stay here anymore 😂😂😂

That’s really interesting! Thanks for mentioning that!
The B&O Rail Museum is easily accessible by public transit, but the Streetcar Museum is a bit of a trek to access without a car.
I love Baltimore and there are so many good things happening here. It's one of the most underrated cities in the country.
Eh...I live here. Unless you're wealthy, not a lot of interesting things make us underrated.

@@tredd4997everyone knows the blacks are a problem in Baltimore,even me a Brazilian
Moved to baltimore after living in California, Hawai’i, New York and New Orleans. We’ve been here almost six years and it’s become home.
Hows the crime there heard its pretty bad
My guess is that you have a bit of money and don't live in Franklin Square.

Yeah it has a rich history! Thanks for the comment!
I've always enjoyed my time in Baltimore. Its location is perfect between DC and Philly. Underrated for sure. Insightful as always 🍻
Thank you!

Thank you!!
If you plan to go from BWI to Baltimore, use the MARC Rail instead of Light Rail. It's very inefficient, old, and breaks down.
Love this city! First time I ever ate raw oysters was in Baltimore, and they were phenomenal

Baltimore has always reminded me of New Orleans. If you were to move New Orleans to the NE. Both cities share a lot of similarities in my opinion 🍻
Uh, dude I'm born and raised in Balt. We aren't your Oakland. The DMV is always arrogantly looking down at the rest of Maryland, especially Baltimore.
People like you see Baltimore as a cheap alternative to DC and have sucked the soul, personality, and identities out of many neighborhoods, while increasing living costs for us all. This isnt recent by the way, this has been a significant issue through Baltimore City's 21st century existence.
That kind of sounds like what someone from. Oakland would say.

I'll be visiting B'more in September and now I have quite a few impressive landmarks to visit!
Definitely check out areas like Federal hill, Fells point, Canton, and the new Baltimore peninsula. All great safe locations for food and drinks. Go to an Os or Ravens game!

Don't forget about the WTC Observatory, only $8!
The pagoda at Patterson Park offers great views of the city
@@jfizzle13 thanks for the reminder. I need to check that out next time I’m in town.
Loved this overview on one of my favorite cities (maybe you'll do Wilmington, Delaware next)!
A note though. It's Johns* Hopkins, not John Hopkins.
Thank you!! And thanks for pointing that out!
Babe wake up! We learning about Baltimore today!
😂😂😂
lol glad you’re excited!
My home state. Born & raised in Maryland. 👍

Can you do Youngstown OH next.
Can you please do Anchorage Alaska next?
I'll be doing it soon :)
Can u do more top 10 skyline video
Yeah I’ll make another top skylines video. Thanks for the suggestion!
my love is from baltimore
I was born in dmv to and I’m born in Baltimore go ravens🎉
Proud JHU Blue Jay here… please understand that it’s Johns Hopkins not “John Hopkins”. Johns Hopkins was a real person, and his first name was Johns.
My mistake. I appreciate you pointing that out! I’ll make a correction in the video description
Never heard anyone refer to Camden Yards as just “Oriole Park” lol
Always Camden Yards here in Baltimore
Yeah, OPaCY is actually a thing: Orioles Park at Camden Yards.
please do one about indianapolis
I already have :)
@@CityGeek oh can you do one about St Louis then please
Please do Orlando
Please do Ohio in your next video🙏
Your vids are well produced and informative, but as a guy who loves skylines and no St Louis vids??? Come on brother!
Thank you! And don't worry, St. Louis is in the queue :)
It is too bad that Harbor Place closed.
New Jersey PA NYC Boston Connecticut "true East Coast"
Baltimore & DC & the DMV "eastcoast with southern influence
Pittsburgh & buffalo " Midwest cities with high eastcoast influence"
The closer you are to the water the more European influence
The more you are in the "true eastcoast area
" you see more Puerto Ricans
And because DC and Baltimore are at the mason Dixon line they have so many southern qualities while being a eastcoast city
Good job. But it’s JohnS Hopkins.
Thank you! And yes I made an error there. Thanks for the comment!
What ! no Home of the Preakness!
JOHNS Hopkins, not John Hopkins!!!
Bro is doing every city but New Orleans...
lol I’m getting to it 😊
.
Is it true that is such a very dangerous city? don't be harsh on me I wanna visit but I'm not sure
Just like any other city, there are areas that are dangerous but if you stay in the right areas it is good. Iv lived here for a couple years now and have never had a problem or felt in danger.

I live here and I want to move it’s not safe
How dangerous is it? I'm from Portland Oregon and the criminal rates are extraordinary
So you're saying that Baltimore isn't a total trash heap of a city?
Charm City😂
Baltimore use to be a great city but not no more

Baltimore is where you go when you been to all the DC spots or DC is too far from your Maryland city.
