Despite what Ebowed says, both Baltimore City and DC are dumps. And YES it IS because of the ghettos and the ghetto rats.
Some parts of the city are actually really nice. Canton has always been a descent area, but now it is an extremley nice area. Houses there are selling for 300,000-750,000. On the other hand, some areas of the city are probably among the worse in the country. I wouldnt walk down North Avenue in broad daylight for 1 million bucks.
True enough. But the bad really outweighs the good in Baltimore City.
