[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I wouldn't pick either. Both are permanently in decline and kind of depressing.

Former Baltimore City and Philadelphia adjacent resident. I'd just move to Florida or Colorado or somewhere with a positive future.[/quote]

You would have said this about DC 25 years ago.[/quote]

No I wouldn't. I lived in Baltimore 25 years ago and never said anything like that about DC. DC is the Capitol. Baltimore is nowhere.[/quote]

You thought dc was on the right track during the Marion Berry era?  That’s either total bs or you’re clueless.[/quote]

You don't get it. DC is the Capitol. It has inherent qualities that sustain it and the DC region as a desirable location. Baltimore benefits a bit from that but otherwise has nothing to make it desirable. It's just a rotting city past its economic relevance.[/quote]

Uh huh. Sure. DC is different, got it, because of... inherent reasons...  Thanks for your incredibly valuable contribution to this conversation.  :roll:

OP, if you move to Baltimore you're going to have to deal with snotty DC-ites who can't imagine how anyone could [i]possibly[/i] survive in the degenerate rotting hellhole *koff* of Baltimore. Incidentally, I don't know your field, but if you're in biotechnology this is a wonderful place to be. For an irrelevant city, Baltimore sure does have a thriving biotech industry, arts scene, and the best health care in the world.

Come see it, spend some time, judge for yourself if ignoring the haters is worth discovering what Baltimore has to offer. Talk to people who actually live here, not those who fled the FOMG URBAN BLIGHT fifteen years ago or whatever and who have since decided it's a super scary place. Get an AirBnB in Canton or Hampden and see if the vibe speaks to you.[/quote]
