Richmond has the James, Lake Gaston, and the Rivah.

If Baltimore were as popular in real life as it is on this board, the city wouldn't be empty and destitute. It's the Detroit of the East Coast. Just goes to show how bizarrely this board skews away from the mainstream.


baltimore is not empty by any stretch. its population is stable or slightly increasing.

Sounds AWESOME! I can't believe more people aren't moving there!





Second link shows that Baltimore populations is expected to increase. The first link shows decrease, but that has stabilized since.

I am not sure why are you so upset that some poeple prefer Baltimore. It is an older settlement than DC because its on better location and has ocean access. When i walk around harbor i can smell the ocean and feel like i am in a sea rown. I also much prefer it architecturally as I don't like the unform sterility of DC.


The Harbour is the only safe place in town. I'm not upset, rather I find the skew of this board funny. Baltimore is a dump.
What you don't get is that some of us like dumps!
