At one point, Highlandtown was it’s own town/city until Baltimore expanded its boundaries and absorbed it.

3 miles house, upstairs @ jong kak, private room @ kong pocha

I’ve done this and it’s incredibly fun and surprisingly affordable. Maybe stack it with dinner at Gunther’s, which is one of my favorite nice dinner spots.

The ‘formal’ step to take is to fix it.

Advance might be able to diagnose. They can check the alternator and starter (for free I believe).

Come to Greektown!

Get it towed to a mechanic

Also what kind of socks does she wear inside such boots? Is normal puma cotton socks okay?

I don’t think you’re allowed to keep inoperable vehicles in the street. Either jump it to drive it to a mechanic or get it towed.

Pretty sure they are subject to the same rules as normal cars after the permit expires. I believe 311 has a option on the abandoned vehicle section for dumpsters

My ex owns a house there. Was mugged repeatedly and had multiple breakins, but kept making excuses because she loved the community. Seeing a guy shot and bleed out on her stoop sealed the deal. She moved to Govans

Interesting. I feel running shoes might be slippery? Specially for climbs?

No way. I can see the whole neighbourhood dumping dog poop in my backyard and I don’t wNt that at all. I hate the smell of it

I like this, in theory, but I can also see it vanishing. Because people steal shit.

I don’t know your age, but Federal Hill has good safety/walkability and lots of nightlife options, although it definitely caters to a younger crowd (early/mid 20s). Statistically, I believe Locust Point is the “safest” neighborhood in Baltimore, a little more residential, and has a quieter nightlife scene but also very close (walkable) to Federal Hill. Fells Point, Canton, Hampden, Remington, Charles Village, and Mt. Vernon might also fit what you’re looking for in terms of the safety/nightlife combo. I think the areas near the water (LP, Fed Hill, Fells, Canton) do tend to be a bit pricier,although it sounds like from your budget you’d definitely still be able to find options within that range. Especially if you consider splitting a place with roommates.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to type all this great info!

Since you’re an avid hiker, may I ask what keeps you going and do you ever get bored of the trails? How do you decide what level of trail you want to pursue on a particular day?

Fun fact: The Shitpost Calligrapher turned this into a work of art.

Safety and nightlife/walkability is important to me. I have not secured my job as I’m coming out of electrician school in West Virginia and plan to probably join the Maryland union. I can commute to work but want to be able to walk to grab food and such

"BRING YOUR WIFE, WE'LL FUCK HER!"

Depends on your taste in lifestyle, bu Hampden, Federal Hill, Fells Point, are all nice and all different...

firefighters can keep it

Do you know where you’ll be working, and if so, do you value being close to where you work? That might help narrow down the suggestions. Also, what do you prioritize in a neighborhood? Safety? Diversity? Nightlife? Easy/quick access to major thoroughfares? I think every neighborhood that will probably be suggested here has strengths and weaknesses in all those areas, so which is most important to you?

I moved to Highlandtown a little over 2 years ago. I really enjoyed the park being a block away (I have 3 pups). Also being able to walk to local bars/Fells Point (Fells Point if you don't mind walking 20mins). Sally O's and Johnny Rads are also close by. However, make sure to lock your car doors and possibly put up a cam for the front and back door. I experienced package theft and car break ins along with other weird things. Before I started parking in the back of the house me and two of my neighbors got nails put in our tires? Not sure if it was a crazy coincidence but we all called tow trucks that morning. Then me and my next door neighbor had our cars broken into AFTER forgetting to lock our doors (the incidents happened months apart), so don't be like us. Nothing was stolen or vandalized thank god. Then we had the occasional weirdo looking to steal whatever wasn't tied down, looking into cars. I just wanted to bring this up cuz while the place is amazing and I VERY much enjoyed living there I feel like people never mention these things (better to be prepared). We are now located in Canton which we like, but we do miss the park being right there.

29th st tavern used to have karaoke. Not sure if they still do. Last time I was there with a big group of friends like 5 years ago and we pretty much had the place to our selves. It's like the complete opposite of a private karaoke room. The mic is behind the bar, so you gotta stand in front of the bar when you sing

Doesn’t seem like all that much money for the amount of work the job entails.

They're doing a great job, so i certainly hope they get a nice pension after 2 terms. We shouldn't want them to have to get other jobs at any point
