Cambridge/Dorchester county info (real estate, high crime, unemployment)

[profesora]

Hello,

If anyone has any knowledge/info about Cambridge or Dorchester County (schools, area, what's good/bad about the area, places to consider living there, etc.) it would be helpful. Thanks for providing all details you may have

Here is a link to find more information on the area. I would also look at surrounding towns/counties if you are not familiar with the area. Real Estate cheaper than most other areas but Cambridge always seems to have high unemployment, a lot of vacant stores/buildings, and fairly high crime for such a small town. I don't know much about the schools there but if you are looking to move there I would definately rent, before purchasing something. That being said I think the neighborhoods west of the downtown area of Cambridge are nice.

Thanks for the info - I suspected some of that might be the case - seems like MD/VA eastern shores tend to have some problems the other parts don't as much.
