A city located near to the country capital may provide more possibilities. Some people love to visit or live in a quiet city, but also want to enjoy the variety of entertainment options or job opportunities that a capital city may offer.

Yes, a lot of crime, but it's a cool town

Let's get it away: Baltimore has a crime problem. A SEVERE crime problem. It's contained to some bad neighborhoods on the East and West sides for the most part, but it can pop up in downtown areas as well. I won't lie, I was a little intimidated in some parts of Baltimore. Having said that, there are also many neighborhoods that are not only safe, but also fairly affordable. Not dirt cheap, but affordable for what you get. And this city does offer a lot. Good food, walkability, excellent museums, nightlife, and a generally friendly and open population (especially compared to DC or Richmond). I don't live there but I'm thinking about it. I've been through and actually enjoyed it a lot. It's got a lot of character and despite the surge in murders in recent years I think some of their plans are going in the right direction.
