Most people think DC is heaven and Baltimore is just dirty. Baltimore is far more charming and the people are kinder. the setting of Baltimore is better than DC. DC is more important and the metro of DC provides more jobs than Baltimore's metro. DC has better public transport and is less rough around the edges. Baltimore has more character. DC has amazing monumental and powerful architecture. Baltimore has cooler residential architecture. Baltimore is more working class (but changing ) and DC has been white collar for a long time.
I have been to Baltimore, some parts are pretty bad.

Um...Okay? I could say some things about Dallas that would be less than positive if you really wanted...I just really dont see the point of your post. Rather rude.

Seriously though, no need to be rude. I don't quite understand why now three people feel compelled to comment on the city in negative light for no reason at all. This isn't a "what do you think about [insert city] thread"
Just to heat up stuff between B-more and our nations capital, I visited D.C. 2 times in one year. Loved it, but it the people weren't too friendly, and you can't drive around to see the attractions, but in B-more, I saw FIVE HOMELESS PEOPLE IN ONE VISIT, one just around the back of the Radisson Hotel, the one I stayed at, AND The Aquarium was EXTREMELY expensive. THIRTY FREAKIN' DOLLARS FOR ONE PERSON!!!

If you said something about Dallas, I really wouldn't care......
Have you been to Annapolis on a weekend? It has a downtown so active that many cities many times its size would love to see in their downtown.
I'm not saying it's up there with Baltimore. But Annapolis has one of the best downtowns there is IMO. Hardly compares to sleepy suburban Frederick.
No need to spread your ignorance about a town such as Frederick. Frederick, a town founded in 1745, has a core comparable with Annapolis. Frederick has for a very long time been the second largest city to Baltimore, only recently surpassed by DC suburbs. Annapolis is more sprawly than Frederick is. Frederick is not a very sleepy city on the weekends at all. With its dense and historic core and surrounding sprawl, Annapolis is the exact same, with the acceptation of more sprawl. Frederick in my mind has a great downtown, a was recently ranked as one of americas nicest neighborhoods.
And even if you don't believe Frederick and Annapolis are comparable, which they completely are, Annapolis certainly does not compare with Baltimore.

Wasn't quite the point, hon. I was saying you were being rather rude.
I don't really see either one competing with the other since they are different kinds of cities, but if so, it's usually the smaller that seeks to the compete with the larger. I seriously doubt DC sees itself competing with Baltimore on any level (outside of sports).
Trust me, Baltimore isnt thinkin about DC the way think they think about us..nobody mentions DC around here. Definitely see more DC people mentioning bmore tho.
