Lol Baltimore can be bareable depending on where you go I guess. I dont know much about the entire city itself besides what I saw on the wire and my experiences from visiting. I go down there sometimes to see a few friends, they stay close to baltimore's downtown area..so its not as bad. There are plenty of abandoned row houses though.
The biggest thing in the city is their harbor, which I hear is nice. As many times as ive been to baltimore Ive actually never been to the harbor. My friends often take me out of baltimore when they wanna show me a good time.
Baltimore will surprise you all! Instant death does not await you here! Come visit, you'll have fun!

I agree, baltimore is often brushed to the side, but really it is a great city that has made a turn around, it still has a ways to go but in during the past 30 years downtown, and the inner harbor have transformed into a lively and fun area.
I say it's a neighborhood by neighborhood thing. I just can't grasp the "which city is safer" thing for large cities, I understand it but it doesn't really matter. Like would you expect to get robbed, gagged, shot, and jumped on the National Mall? Would you like to skip off into the sunset in Brownsville, Brooklyn? It's silly to me.
It just says "safest/most dangerous"... so bryson's right, natural disasters qualify. Hey, how about car accidents? Probably a drunk driver is more dangerous to the average person than a street hood.
This is probably the most accurate portrait of the four.
Not really at all. DC has a way higher crime rate than NYC.
DC/Baltimore/Philly are all similar. Philly has the 4th highest crime rate in the nation of cities 500,000+ in population; DC is 5th; Baltimore is 2nd.
