That is quite the understatement. It is a 3rd world country.

Baltimore isn't great, but worst in the country? I'm going to nominate Gary, Indiana, and like 87 percent of the state of Florida.

Oh come on. I give Baltimore a hard time but it's not THAT bad. Actually there are many parts of the city that are being gentrified although the neighborhood where pimlico resides certainly isn't one of those parts.

I put Detroit in the same category as Baltimore.

Camden isn't so bad, though that's mostly because there's nobody there anymore. Newark is pretty rough.

Anyone landing at BWI must stop at G&M restaurant. 5 minutes from the airport and the best double crabcake platter you will get in the country dollar for dollar.

there's as much history in baltimore /maryland, if not more, than boston/ massachusetts.
they may take the race from maryland but they won't get the Preakness name.

There are a million things to do in Maryland, and I've traveled the world.

Ridiculous. There are some bad neighborhoods, like any other big city, but the worse in the country? Not even close. There are plenty of great places around Baltimore that are nowhere near the harbor.

Detroit is half vacant. It is way worse than Baltimore.
