[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone. I really appreciate all of the threads and they've given me a ton to consider. Only one of us has a job offer and we would not move unless both did, so we'll see how that pans out. This has also made me realize that we'll need several more trips there to check out specific neighborhoods more closely before we consider moving. We planned to do this anyway, but reading your posts has made me realize I was probably idealizing it a bit. Thanks again to all for all of the very helpful info![/quote]

The job thing is key, and it's tough in Baltimore.  There are far fewer white collar jobs (except for medicine).  And I think also that the jobs that are available pay a lot less than in the DC area.  And while that may seem okay because of a cheaper COL, sometimes it doesn't all shake out to be much better.

I lived in Baltimore and moved to DC for work.  I like Baltimore, despite some very real flaws, but the cheaper COL isn't cheap enough to make up for the limited job opportunities.   [/quote]
