[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not local but I wouldn’t want my kids to study in or near Baltimore. Too dangerous.[/quote] It really isn’t though. If you aren’t involved in something shady or wandering around doing poverty tourism, you are no more likely to experience violence there than in any major US city. There’s zero reason for your college student to be in a bad neighborhood. My friends and I all have at least one kid who graduated from a university in Baltimore City or Towson in the past ten years. About 10 kids total. All Blair grads. None experienced any violence first hand in Baltimore. One saw a violent fistfight between two students at a party. Seven of those 10 stayed in Baltimore City after getting their degrees. Other than an occasional porch pirate, they still aren’t experiencing violence.[/quote]
