In honor of ModerateVA, I suppose. I don't think this one has been done recently.

As for me, I have many politic friends on the Maryland side of things, and I must say it is more up my alley. I have never been to Baltimore, although I have heard pleasant things. The Bay is beautiful. SOMD is full of uppity transplants from the northeast/Chicago/West Coast (including my friends that reside there) - my people.

NOVA has an older and more southern population - not my people. Alexandria is really nice, though. The Virginia coast is nice, but doesn't beat the Bay. And inland Virginia is Mississippi, so bad.

You do realize that there are portions of Virginia on the Bay? Hampton Roads doesn't get any love...

Maryland is more expensive than Virginia and somehow still manages to have worse roads and infrastructure. The whole area has an air of decay about it despite its residents paying more tax than their Virginia neighbors.

Hmm.

I'd rather live in NoVa than the Maryland DC burbs (although I'm stuck here for the foreseeable future).

But I'd much rather live in Baltimore than anywhere in Virginia.  (Although Richmond probably wouldn't be so bad?)

So, I dunno.  I mostly just desperately want to live not in either.

In either state, I'd prefer the DC suburbs. And in that case, I'd rather live in the more liberal state. I think Montgomery County is the most appealing area of the DC suburbs.

I live on the VA side of D.C., so I'll go with that.

Both have some nice small towns, mountains, coasts, and interesting cities, but both also have seemingly interminable sprawlburbs. Like almost every state, there are both good and bad parts. That said, I try to avoid going into either if I can help it. Smiley
