Why I left Maryland (Baltimore, Silver Spring: crimes, median income, cost of living)

If you're referring to MikeJones 1999, his previous locations show PG and Howard Counties, MD.

No one in America can run away from Illegals. They are in every state/county/city.

probably, but the population of illegals in the DC area is out of control. I cant blame anyone wanting to move out of PG or MoCo (or Northern VA for that matter) for the way the area handles illegal immigration.

I am from Utica, NY originally (way Upstate by Syracuse). I moved to MD in 2000 and returned to Utica in 2006 because I missed my family and friends as well as I didn't care for the traffic and crime in Maryland. Well.... it's two years later and I am back in MD. The jobs sucked up there not to mention the crappy winters and it was boring as hell. I got my old job back here and I am happy. My family/friends up there don't understand why I left again but that's because they don't know what it's like living anywhere besides Utica. My sister recently told me that she is considering moving down here once her kids are done with school.

No we need to vote out the Democrats who have turned MD into a santuary state for illegal immigrants.

If you live in the State of Maryland and you have a brain. Get out! Now I'm living in the American South, in the Great State of South Carolina.

I grew up in P.G. county, and I left Maryland in 1997. I expect I won't be coming back.

Maryland is #1 in robbery for 12+ years. #2 in murder, second only to Louisiana.

Thank goodness you can't carry a gun for protection in Maryland. Otherwise it might be dangerous. </sarcasm>

What year did this occur?

Infineon Technologies AG aka Qimonda AG is a German semi-conductor manufacturer with it's North American headquarters in Richmond, VA.

Or you can just leave. How's that?

Iscalder is right, every jurisdiction has them. And while I'm not blind to Maryland's apparent tolerance to illlegal immigration, we're don't just "roll out the red carpet" as most conservatives (ie. Virginians) love to say.

Apparent tolerance? I find it very evident in MD, what with the talk of giving illegal immigrants in state tuition.
