Restaurants
Pro sports and Maryland being in the big ten so they play my favorite team
Transit (intra and intercity) and walkability and bike trails 
Liberal, with generous antipoverty programs (room for improvement but better than many places)
Museums, including many free ones
Playgrounds, pools, and libraries
Lower property taxes than a lot of places
Parades and fireworks
Diversity, including a decent number of people who share my heritage but also many who don't
The government agencies that work well (which is not all of them, but more than people think)
Costco sells liquor here
Gyms and athletic facilities though this could be better/cheaper
Few natural disasters
Seasons
Employment opportunities and high wages
Volunteer opportunities
Lots of people walking dogs...I don't have a dog but I like to see them
Farmer's markets
Parks
The suburbs (I don't want to live there but it's convenient to go to them and do/buy stuff there)
Local and national history, monuments, being in a place people want to visit 
Having lived here long enough to know my way around, have friends and neighborhood acquaintances, and have lots of memories. If I moved it would take a lot of time to build the same knowledge and connections[/quote]
