[quote=Anonymous]There is a reason. I live in the Patterson Park area. I grew up in Baltimore City till end of middle school, and moved back now in my mid 30's. Some of us that "got out" early maybe because our parents wanted better for us are now coming back to "reclaim" our city and make it for the better. I came back because I love my city and wanted to vote here. I don't believe building the city back up and putting hard working tax paying people here is a bad thing or even "gentrification", especially for me. Than you have the people that work in downtown Baltimore(the upper class/upper/middle class) that want to live where they work and finally are infact doing that...that's been on the rise since 1999 when the projects came down and it's been happening ever since. The college kids that come from everywhere (even Baltimore) are getting degrees, working here, falling in love with the city and staying etc. It's not necessarily all bad.[/quote]
