Affordable Walkable Cities: Baltimore, Maryland

Affordable Walkable Cities: Baltimore, Maryland

We will look at cities that are just plain underrated. We will focus on specific neighborhoods that are walkable and bike-able to services and amenities within a reasonable distance. The 15 minute city in America?

What actually qualifies as Affordable? We will be looking at cities with average rent and median home sale price.

What qualifies as Walkable? The entire city doesn’t have to be walkable since that’s unrealistic but they must have at least several neighborhoods with a good walk, bike and transit score. The goal is to find an area within the city where you can absolutely live car free.

The car free lifestyle is realistic in Baltimore. It’s more dense than Pittsburgh and Cleveland and has decent public transit options like the Metro and Charm City circulator.

Baltimore gets overshadowed by DC and Philly. It suffers from a lot of negative headline news but the city is improving, albeit very very slowly.

Charm City has earned its name. They’ve done a wonderful job of preserving the old storefronts and classic architecture. There is an old meets new feeling everywhere you look.
