He actually got it pretty spot on. Though people from Montgomery County might disagree. The areas outside the three cities he mentioned is pretty middle class though. It's where the not rich but not poor white people live in the D.C. area. That and Alexandria in Virginia.
Yes. He was mistaken about Baltimore. The farther north you go from Downtown the more affluent it becomes. Johns Hopkins, Roland Park, Canterbury, Stoneleigh, Towson, Cockeysville up to Timmonium is called and considered Greater Baltimore. It's the west, east and south of Baltimore that needs the help.
Things you missed/got wrong: 1. We have the best state flag in the whole damn country. 2. We do not all speak like "warshington" 3. Southern Maryland is not unworthy of your time, it is beautiful. we are the best kept secret.

Also as someone who’s lived in Baltimore briefly and walked around the city it’s not as bad as he makes it out to be you just need to have street smarts
I've lived in, walked in, and driven in Baltimore City. Like any big city, it has places that are bad, places that are ground into poverty, places that are less safe than others. If you only film the unattractive streets, then you are giving a poor overview of the city. During the Revolutionary War, the country's capital was moved to Baltimore and the State Capital in Annapolis has the oldest still operating Capitol Building.
As a person who went to Johns Hopkins University, the neighborhoods and streets are not as dangerous as portrayed in the video. I actually felt safe in that part of area in north Baltimore City. There are some rich neighborhoods near the campus and nice coffee shops and clothing stores near the campus as well.
@@zamorapakalolo6699 yes and after watching this video he does not know the state of Maryland that I live in. Obviously, he talked to the wrong people or the right ones didn't care to talk with him.
Right, he chose to only show the bad streets. All the areas he circled are nice neighborhoods. He knows nothing. And no mention of Fells, Fed hill, Canton, Patterson Park, all nice areas.
I’ve lived in Maryland most of my life. I don’t say hun or Warshington, and I don’t put Old Bay on anything except crabs. I root for the Terps, the Skins, and the Nats, and I’m very much missing my sports. Maryland is a pretty great state and has just about anything you could want. Thanks for doing a video on our great state!
Everything in this video is incorrect. You chose to show the one bad street in Baltimore and made it seem like that’s the whole city with no mention of the other wonderful neighborhoods and culture here. I’ve lived in the city for over a decade with no issues. And some of the names you are calling people in the rural areas and eastern shore I’ve never heard of in my life. You obviously made this video having no knowledge of the state at all.
Baltimore has more than one bad street. It used to be a great city once but poor leadership is leading it to ruin. The only good parts re the neighborhoods along border from west to north to the east.
It is honestly impressive how well Montgomery county is wrong. It doesn’t get enough credit. They have an amazing recycling program and no landfills in the county, they instead have an energy transfer station, look it up. Besides that, their libraries are beautiful and the county programs are very well run. Their community college is probably one of the best in the entire country. It’s a great place to live.
As a Marylander, I questioned the accuracy of some of the video. Then you said everyone else in the state hates Montgomery County and I thought, alright, pretty accurate.
University of Maryland is in PG county! MGM Casino is in PG County, as well as Bowie State, the National Harbor, NASA Goddard space Center. Don’t sleep on PG. yes parts of it are hood but not everything.
As someone from Maryland the things he said are very debatable it depends on which parts your going to and the people you talk to. Take everything he said with a gran of salt❤️
So Prince George's County is home to 5/6 of the wealthiest towns in the country. It's not just "ward 9". It is also home to ~15 Government Agencies who do a great deal of procurement for private business owners which means its a huge economic driver for the Country. I won't go into all of the stats but the way you painted Gorgeous Prince George's was clearly biased. Lastly, "College Park" just outside of Moco... happens to be in Prince George's County.
R. Joshua Reynolds it seems like his goal with the video was to only talk about the bad things and complain. Seems like a miserable person in general. I’ve never even heard of Ward 9.
@@elijahadams8835 Comparing just cities to an entire state isn't really possible. The only thing in Maryland comparable is Baltimore, which is already a different vibe from the rest of Maryland lol
I'm from Bethesda Maryland, I'm in Houston Texas now, for 30 something years, miss maryland, crab boils, fishing, visiting Georgetown...great state, lived in frederick and thurmont Maryland, in the country, was gorgeous.
Yep! Frederick, like all other cities in MD, have their good areas and bad ones. One simply has to know which areas are which. I'm still in Frederick County, and I love it.
I'm currently living in Bethesda, changed so much, people no longer afford here single house starts at 2mil+. I'm moving to Rosemary Beach next year can't wait
i’m far from western maryland but when i do go to the cumberland area for a family reunion it is beautiful and maryland is a mix of everything but the more west you go the more pretty it gets .
Pretty amazing how RICH the state of Maryland is! RICHEST of all 50 states by median household income, even more amazing considing how poor the majority of Baltimore is, and drags it down considerably!
Basically this video is saying what everyone in Baltimore thinks: everything in Maryland outside of Baltimore is hillbilly town and north Baltimore is dangerous. But this video didn’t mention all the nice parts of Baltimore, like Fells Point, Federal Hill, the inner harbor, Roland park, etc.
Um, North Baltimore is the wealthiest and least dangerous part of the city. I do agree, of course, that the areas you mentioned are nice. BTW, Roland Park is in North Baltimore.
I can definitely vouch for Roland Park area, I went to that elementary school! Catonsville, Patterson Park, Mt Vernon, Reistertown, and Whitelock. It’s a small city with a lot of gems 💎
THIS guy seems to take a rather shallow view and understanding of many places he visits. Who is he anyway? Where is he from? Where did he go to school and for how long? He does hit on some of our stereotypical flaws. We’re a fractured state, America in miniature, they used to say. Geographically and socially. I think he’s too young to have heard that, or just not bright enough to pick up on the nuances. Little better than BS?
I call BS. The correct Marylander pronunciation of Baltimore is closer to “Bawlmer”. And going to OC is “down the ocean” which to non-natives sounds more like “downy aioshun”. He’s right about “hon” but cmon anyone with a brain knows that.
Maryland was the state that fully welcomed me on my first trip to the USA for an exchange program , stayed in Ocean City, MD for the whole summer (in 2016 and 2017) it’s a safe city , great nightlife ,good food and good people , and it’s close to the Rehoboth Beach outlets in Delaware where you can get lots of stuff. Great video I liked it , keep it up 👍🏼
Frederick County is becoming the new Montgomery County. Parts of northern Moco are kinda ghetto like Gaithersburg and Germantown. Residents are sometimes referred to as "Moco Loco". Also "hon" is really just a Baltimore thing.
Montgomery County is not even as close to being dangerous as Prince George's County, Baltimore County, Baltimore, Worchester County, Washington County and Anne Arundel County.
are dott is "R." spelled out, its the copyright sign ®️ it signifies alot for me its a lot of different meanings behind it for me, for the most part thats how i came up wit it an R inside a circle i wanted a short catchy username that symbolized me @@desireechisholm2899
Very well said. And it's obvious that this guy has never visited most of the places he makes videos about. Most likely spends about 15 minutes doing online research, finds some stock photos, and knocks out a video in less than an hour.
I lived in Baltimore for several years. A crack head took a dump on my front step and my buddies dog got kidnapped and held for ransom lol. Bmore is hot garbage. But Primos Chicken on Pratt and Cross is FIRE.
I'm from PG county by the way of Washington DC and our accent is way different than Baltimore. Alot of us have DC roots from the music to family members.
It has its ups and downs. I certainly don't like the high cost of living, unfriendliness, way too much traffic and type A pesonalities that have migrated down here. I won't say it is the worst place, but I find the region overrated honestly.
My fiancés parents are from Thailand. They came here with nothing and built a wonderful life for their 2 daughters in Montgomery county. Maryland is the 9th most diverse state and number 1 in Asian population.
I’ve lived in different parts of MD for the past 20 years. Prince George’s county is the wealthiest Black county in the country. Millionaires..Doctors, lawyers, engineers.. great homes in that county. I lived there as a child and 2 of my sisters currently have homes there. Baltimore is just as bad as you’ve said. My university was in Cumberland and it’s peaceful and scenic. Locals were not as conservative as portrayed. I’ve lived in Montgomery county for almost 2 years and it’s one of the best counties in MD so that part correct.
I deliver for doordash and postmates. One time I got an order for Gibson island and they STILL would not let me through the gate. Made the guy drive over to the gate to pick up his food from me. Yet, when I deliver to shipmen at the naval academy the security is so chill about letting me through.. Lol.
1. This is MY STATE!! THANKS NICK for the video & listening to your fans.. (I was the one who asked for the MD unboxing) 😎 2. No, not everyone in Maryland talks funny only the people in the Baltimore region 🤣 3. YES we do put Old Bay on everything. YES, EVERYTHING. I won't even leave the house without a portable can of Old Bay 4. Our state flag is the best no other one comes even close to how awesome ours looks! 5. We are not a southern state but also not a northern state. We didn't secede with the Confederacy
I live in Maryland and you have no clue what you're talking about I've lived in Maryland 35 years You have no idea about the heritage of Maryland first of all Maryland is not classified as a southern state it's obvious to me by watching this video you're clueless
Actually Maryland is a southern state. Anything south of the Mason Dixon Line is considered the south. Due to the liberal nature of the state it now identifies more with the north. Even the state song calls for the throwing off of tyranny and helping our sister state Virginia.
I bagan working as a snowbird driver last year. And out of the 30 states I have been to this past year, MD has been the one to surprise me the most. I stayed in Silver Springs. I loved my night there and want to make a point to spend more time there in the future.
This video is pretty inaccurate. I don't know where this guy gets his info but he's obviously not big on fact checking. He's right about some things, but mostly, he's just regurgitating false information. His geography is pretty incorrect as well.
As a Marylander I approve of this video. The map was very accurate, Old bay is great on chicken wings, crabs, fish, and fries, and the stereotypes were pretty on the mark.
I'd like to agree with you, bit there really are parts of Baltimore that are neglected. The state, let alone the city, hasn't done enough to invest in the community to bring those areas back up.
I’ve came from Northeast Baltimore and my grandparents moved in there from the 1940s. Seeing the history of the street they lived on has changed my perspective that the crack era has ruined Northeast Baltimore. I live in Randallstown now and I have to say that NE Baltimore you aren’t “bound to get shot”. The people there have a strong community.
Dundalk is still very blue collar, but the area around Cockeysville, in northern central Baltimore county, isn’t blue collar at all. It’s mostly upper middle class suburbs up there.
Parkville is still pretty blue collar too , yup northern Baltimore county is for the rich people most of those farms been sold and million dollar homes on them now
Anywhere near Central almost northern Baltimore County are upper middle to upper class. Hunt valley, Phoenix, Jacksonville, Glenarm, Cockeysville and the Dulaney Valley area has a lot of old long money.
Hey Lauren am sorry you don’t know me my name is David belote I was flipping through the comments sections when I came across your comments i decided to know you more hope you don’t mind
For real. To not even mention Leonardtown or Solomons makes me think he didn’t spend much time researching. Now I’m thinking his other videos aren’t very accurate.
I was born and raised in Baltimore. The city has been going downhill for decades. I have also lived in Montgomery County and a few years ago went back to visit just for the day and I was priced back into reality. Northwestern Baltimore County was where I was most comfortable until I moved away from the state. After almost 2 decades I return to Maryland I moved to the lower part of the mid-shore, Dorchester County. I loved it. What drove me away from Maryland who is the overall political situation in the state, high taxes, had a chance to live close to family in Florida, a state with no personal income tax. I still have one brother living in Maryland and I expect in about a decade when he retires he will be moving to another state.
Montgomery County Rocville's Lincoln Park was Bad in 80's 90's, Rockville Rocks 1987, but cleaned up these days, Gaithersburg 124 is a under rated Ghetto
Takoma Park is a hipster liberal white neighborhood. Langley Park is the hood not Takoma. A tiny sliver of Takoma Park right off 650 near the border with North Capitol DC is ghetto but if you drive up Carrol st to Takoma dc anywhere off piney branch south of Sligo creek pkwy it’s straight up gentrified
@@beambooi6431 Yep, I used to live right in that area of 650 (New Hampshire Ave for those who don't know) in the Belford Towers projects. Pretty much everything you said that whole area is true.
College Park and University of Maryland are in PG county....people seem to forget this. Its not called "just outside Montgomery County" its in PG. Say where it is...not what it is in proximity to. With the virus, the college town is empty, but I drive there to support some of my favorite restaurants in my county. PG is such a big and diverse place with some beautiful homes. My family and I have never actually heard anyone call it ward 9, but why show just that rough area? I always hear "one of nations wealthiest black areas" and I feel comfortable and safe here. Been here since 98. They are gentrifying a lot of the shady areas close to D.C. but PG isn't just the outskirts of D.C. either. That rough snippet of PG is one part, and that pretty snippet of University of MD is another part of the same county. What does MOCO have to do with college park and UMD? This stuff is why PG gets no credit for the good stuff we actually have. I just bought a home in the suburbs in a nice community with great neighbors and beautiful parks.
I was born and raised in Southwest Baltimore City and I moved up here to Western Maryland (Cumberland) about 13 years ago, that was by far the best move I ever made in my entire life..
Hey, Nick Johnson, I got hooked watching your videos, and I like watching them. I love learning about other states in the US. Keep it up, Nick. Big fan from Long Island, New York!
Hello Janet am sorry you don’t know me my name is David belote I was flipping through the comments sections when I came across your comments i decided to know you more hope you don’t mind
What part of Fredrick County ? I lived in Frederick City , Walkersville and Thurmont. My parents live in Spring Ridge. I went to Walkersville High School.
Daniel Francella i grew up in New Market Urbana area. my cousins went to walkersville HS and i went to urbana hs 2004. recently lived off of rosemont ave in frederick city
I’m from Maryland and I suck at driving so don’t come here. Most of what he said is right though he left some things/ important county’s out, and NOT everybody talks like that I certainly don’t.
Another great clip, Nick. I was born in "Bawlmer City" in 1957 so I remember how bad it has become now. Maryland is a big, diverse place, so it all depends on where you want to live (like most states). I personally think that the Eastern Shore has the most to offer.
Tom Selleck, Pat Sajak, Chef Ettore Boiardi, Roy Clark, Danny Gatton... there's a huge list of notables who called Maryland "home" at one point or another!
YEAAAAAA moco gang gang but i am not rich and I definitely live on the side of moco were its smaller houses and many minorities. I really like western maryland tho and also the bay.
Baltimore born and raised. Guy got a lot right here but he missed the mark on some things 1. Politicians are reluctant to gentrifying baltimore city would cause rents would be astronomically high. They have already risen a ridiculous percentage over the past couple years and most people in baltimore city are living at or below poverty levels. If in 2018 your rent was 900, theres no reason why that same place should rent for 1300 two years later. Gentrification brings people with higher incomes in the impoverished hood seeing low rents and therefore landlords jack those prices up. Doesnt affect the gentrifiers, but affects the long term residents greatly. A vast majority of homes in the city are rental properties. Its not about losing support. Its about not having a place to live. 2. We did not climb the gates of M&T Bank to watch the ravens play, at least not to my knowledge and the clip. We climbed the gate to participate in the Superbowl celebration ceremony in 2012 because the stadium was at capacity and they closed the gates. It was a big deal. They shut down downtown and my job gave us a break to attend. But yes we are die hard ravens fans. I have a tattoo 3. You also left out that Maryland is one of the wealthiest states comprised of African Americans in the nation 4. The accents - The only two detectable accents we really have are Rural white accents (all of Maryland) and Black city accents (Baltimore City): The rural whites are the ones who say "hon'" (honey) and "wooder" (Water). We say "tew" (too) "urn" (iron, aaron, urn), "zink" (sink), "oinch" (orange). PG/MoCo/DC has their own lingo and it confuses us sometimes if we dont go to DC often.
Baltimore residents absolutely have a very distinct accent, and yes the long time residents do say hon. Three distinct regions, I-95 corridor, Western MD, and Eastern Shore and would include the counties s of DC as essentially Eastern Shore
Thanks for putting the image of Joe Thiesman’s leg getting broken into pieces by LT into my head Mappy! I remember watching that game live with my dad. My dad yelled out “old Joe got hit so hard I felt it in Denver!” Thanks for the great content Nick. Love all of your vids. Keep up the great work and stay safe and healthy bro.
I live in Upper Marlboro, and stay in Marlboro Ridge, a predominately black wealthy neighborhood. you should’ve talked about all the parts, not just shown the seemingly bad parts.
I've lived in Maryland most of my life, mostly in Montgomery County. This place SUCKS!!! Why you ask? Besides what was already mentioned, which is just scratching the surface, The traffic is ReDicUlOuS... Not just the congestion either, bad enough you can't get anywhere fast, they have the nerve too have speed cameras EVERYWHERE in places where you wouldn't think they should be, which is the whole point... Bad enough this place fleeces you on taxes, but to ad insult to injury they dive in your pocket even more, and the traffic lights our timed terribly, no sooner then you stop at a major intersection and sit for 2mins your stopping again... this can go on for several blocks... and one would think with all the revenue that's generated in this pristine wealthy suburb of neighboring Washington D.C. that it would have decent infrastructure, Wrong... the roads are horrendous and there always seems to be road issues and construction which adds more issues to getting around, and Not to knock the people of N.J. Philly or N.Y. but they have infiltrated this area, which has added to the traffic, crime and higher insurance premiums... You would expect this being such a high status profile area, that there wouldn't be on a short supply of anything at the store's, Wrong... This place amazes me that it's always out of things in the store's, supply and demand isn't the order of the day here... Then there's the all probing police state, there's so many different kinds of police here you'd think your living in a National Police Force... I could keep going on, but I think your getting the picture, this place is a Major Joke...
Ushsh Hshs; born and raised in Maryland. It's definitely a southern state as you can determine that by the way Marylanders react when it snows--especially the way they "drive" in the snow. The mere mention of the word "snow" in a weather forecast and Marylanders loot the grocery store like the 7th seal was just broken; all schools close and people are absent at their jobs because of the paralyzingly fear of the white stuff.

Thank you it’s not that bad
I've lived in, walked in, and driven in Baltimore City. Like any big city, it has places that are bad, places that are ground into poverty, places that are less safe than others. If you only film the unattractive streets, then you are giving a poor overview of the city. During the Revolutionary War, the country's capital was moved to Baltimore and the State Capital in Annapolis has the oldest still operating Capitol Building.
As a person who went to Johns Hopkins University, the neighborhoods and streets are not as dangerous as portrayed in the video. I actually felt safe in that part of area in north Baltimore City. There are some rich neighborhoods near the campus and nice coffee shops and clothing stores near the campus as well.
I wanna be able to walk around without having to be "street smart" tho

It's only a west Baltimore accent at that (maybe a little south Baltimore)

Or, Montgomery County if he thinks Silver Spring is rich white people driving BMWs and Jaguars ;)
“Really nice?” That’s a reach.
Right, he chose to only show the bad streets. All the areas he circled are nice neighborhoods. He knows nothing. And no mention of Fells, Fed hill, Canton, Patterson Park, all nice areas.
J MD someone else who doesn’t know anything.
I agree, he doesn’t know much about Baltimore at all.
This guy enjoys adding to the stereotype of “certain” spots in Maryland, in particular Baltimore
How are you doing
Hello how are you doing my name is David belote am sorry you don’t know me can I know you more
I’ve lived in Maryland most of my life. I don’t say hun or Warshington, and I don’t put Old Bay on anything except crabs. I root for the Terps, the Skins, and the Nats, and I’m very much missing my sports. Maryland is a pretty great state and has just about anything you could want. Thanks for doing a video on our great state!
Hey Carol!
Capitals and Wizards
Hey, Nick!!
Albert Sancho, yes! Sorry I forgot those two!
Yup. “Warshington”??? Nahhhh. And Old Bay is for crabs/summer. Good post!
Everything in this video is incorrect. You chose to show the one bad street in Baltimore and made it seem like that’s the whole city with no mention of the other wonderful neighborhoods and culture here. I’ve lived in the city for over a decade with no issues. And some of the names you are calling people in the rural areas and eastern shore I’ve never heard of in my life. You obviously made this video having no knowledge of the state at all.
ONE bad street?
He’s a tool !!! A true bone head ass guy ! Baltimore has soooo many nice places !
Would have been nice to see the great things in Baltimore highlighted like the universities, Kennedy Krieger, and all the other great things.
Baltimore has more than one bad street. It used to be a great city once but poor leadership is leading it to ruin. The only good parts re the neighborhoods along border from west to north to the east.
Agree.
It is honestly impressive how well Montgomery county is wrong. It doesn’t get enough credit. They have an amazing recycling program and no landfills in the county, they instead have an energy transfer station, look it up. Besides that, their libraries are beautiful and the county programs are very well run. Their community college is probably one of the best in the entire country. It’s a great place to live.
Run*
You forgot to mention that Montgomery County also has the largest population and largest GDP out of every country in Maryland.
As a Marylander, I questioned the accuracy of some of the video. Then you said everyone else in the state hates Montgomery County and I thought, alright, pretty accurate.
man :-( we aren't all wealthy snobs etc. i`m from Germantown originally and GermanTown is far from the description of montgomery.
@@tomerza yea no its not. Moco that everyone hates is Chevy chase, bethesda, and "north Bethesda" because they're too good for rockville
oh dang it i didnt mean to be hated
Hello from North Bethesda haha 😂 I am not Karen at least
University of Maryland is in PG county! MGM Casino is in PG County, as well as Bowie State, the National Harbor, NASA Goddard space Center. Don’t sleep on PG. yes parts of it are hood but not everything.
And andrews air force base
And Fed Ex Field
How they not hoods?
Kyng Jakk it is home to 5 of the top ten wealthiest black neighborhoods in America which makes it the richest black county in all of America.
Papa Gramps you must be talking about Bowie, Upper Marlboro because the parts near dc are not nice like Landover or forestville or seat pleasant
As someone from Maryland the things he said are very debatable it depends on which parts your going to and the people you talk to. Take everything he said with a gran of salt❤️
I agree.
So Prince George's County is home to 5/6 of the wealthiest towns in the country. It's not just "ward 9". It is also home to ~15 Government Agencies who do a great deal of procurement for private business owners which means its a huge economic driver for the Country. I won't go into all of the stats but the way you painted Gorgeous Prince George's was clearly biased. Lastly, "College Park" just outside of Moco... happens to be in Prince George's County.
R. Joshua Reynolds it seems like his goal with the video was to only talk about the bad things and complain. Seems like a miserable person in general. I’ve never even heard of Ward 9.

Maryland is a great home base for traveling
Have you been to atlanta, portland or seatle? if so how would those cities compare to Maryland?
@@elijahadams8835 Comparing just cities to an entire state isn't really possible. The only thing in Maryland comparable is Baltimore, which is already a different vibe from the rest of Maryland lol
This video feels very negative to one of the best states to live in.
You have obviously not traveled much. Maryland is an overcrowded hell hole.

I'm from Bethesda Maryland, I'm in Houston Texas now, for 30 something years, miss maryland, crab boils, fishing, visiting Georgetown...great state, lived in frederick and thurmont Maryland, in the country, was gorgeous.
Wooo! Frederick! He skipped quite a few parts of Maryland, like Frederick which I think is a great place.
Yep! Frederick, like all other cities in MD, have their good areas and bad ones. One simply has to know which areas are which. I'm still in Frederick County, and I love it.
You boiled your crabs? Ugh. We steam them here.
I'm currently living in Bethesda, changed so much, people no longer afford here single house starts at 2mil+. I'm moving to Rosemary Beach next year can't wait
i’m far from western maryland but when i do go to the cumberland area for a family reunion it is beautiful and maryland is a mix of everything but the more west you go the more pretty it gets .
as much as baltimore sucks, I feel like the fell's point area never gets enough love
Yeah, I live in fells and life is good. 👍🏽
Fells is nice and so is the entire Harbor East.
Baltimore isnt that bad...jeez
Honestly...if we weren't pushed to fight for survival it would not be this bad
They've built it up recently
I feel like Ocean City wasn't a dump 20 years ago. Maybe I'm wrong, i don't remember it being horrible at all.
Adrian I don’t remember OC being a dump either.
@@audm.5946 i used to go there once or twice every summer between 2000-2002. It was always quite fun.
It was awesome twenty years ago. Now it's trash!
It used to be awesome but people from mostly the other side of the bridge, Pennsylvania and NY come and forget how to act all summer.
I've been going there every summer for the past 20 years it was never a dump but they did do a lot of remodeling and clean up do to hurricane damages
As someone who grew up on the eastern shore, and lives on the other side of the state now, you pretty much nailed it.
Pretty amazing how RICH the state of Maryland is! RICHEST of all 50 states by median household income, even more amazing considing how poor the majority of Baltimore is, and drags it down considerably!
It’s the liberal hub. What do you expect?
I thought Maryland was poor because it got so much crime in Baltimore.
@@phuckhugh2698 no that's just Baltimore
@@phuckhugh2698 maryland isnt just baltimore-

Basically this video is saying what everyone in Baltimore thinks: everything in Maryland outside of Baltimore is hillbilly town and north Baltimore is dangerous.
But this video didn’t mention all the nice parts of Baltimore, like Fells Point, Federal Hill, the inner harbor, Roland park, etc.
Um, North Baltimore is the wealthiest and least dangerous part of the city. I do agree, of course, that the areas you mentioned are nice. BTW, Roland Park is in North Baltimore.
I can definitely vouch for Roland Park area, I went to that elementary school! Catonsville, Patterson Park, Mt Vernon, Reistertown, and Whitelock. It’s a small city with a lot of gems 💎
THIS guy seems to take a rather shallow view and understanding of many places he visits. Who is he anyway? Where is he from? Where did he go to school and for how long? He does hit on some of our stereotypical flaws. We’re a fractured state, America in miniature, they used to say. Geographically and socially. I think he’s too young to have heard that, or just not bright enough to pick up on the nuances. Little better than BS?
I call BS. The correct Marylander pronunciation of Baltimore is closer to “Bawlmer”. And going to OC is “down the ocean” which to non-natives sounds more like “downy aioshun”. He’s right about “hon” but cmon anyone with a brain knows that.
You got the accent right, finally, hun from Ball mer
YES, “Bawlmer” it is. Have a glass of wooder

Maryland was the state that fully welcomed me on my first trip to the USA for an exchange program , stayed in Ocean City, MD for the whole summer (in 2016 and 2017) it’s a safe city , great nightlife ,good food and good people , and it’s close to the Rehoboth Beach outlets in Delaware where you can get lots of stuff. Great video I liked it , keep it up 👍🏼
Beautiful city. Thrashers is on top
Do a real report on Baltimore even if it has negatives or don't say snything about at all. Misleading
Right, places like Canton are the rick yuppy white people area...etc lol
Frederick County is becoming the new Montgomery County. Parts of northern Moco are kinda ghetto like Gaithersburg and Germantown. Residents are sometimes referred to as "Moco Loco". Also "hon" is really just a Baltimore thing.
Ok hon
Montgomery County is not even as close to being dangerous as Prince George's County, Baltimore County, Baltimore, Worchester County, Washington County and Anne Arundel County.

It has its ups and downs. I certainly don't like the high cost of living, unfriendliness, way too much traffic and type A pesonalities that have migrated down here. I won't say it is the worst place, but I find the region overrated honestly.

My fiancés parents are from Thailand. They came here with nothing and built a wonderful life for their 2 daughters in Montgomery county. Maryland is the 9th most diverse state and number 1 in Asian population.
I’ve lived in different parts of MD for the past 20 years.
Prince George’s county is the wealthiest Black county in the country. Millionaires..Doctors, lawyers, engineers.. great homes in that county. I lived there as a child and 2 of my sisters currently have homes there.
Baltimore is just as bad as you’ve said.
My university was in Cumberland and it’s peaceful and scenic. Locals were not as conservative as portrayed.
I’ve lived in Montgomery county for almost 2 years and it’s one of the best counties in MD so that part correct.

Don't pay attention to clowns like this, they see BLACK..... oh they see bad.

I mean Harriette Tubman literally was a slave here... that she fled from
You guys should maybe talk to the US census about that lol. I mean I'd love to not be called southern. I am all for it
Actually Maryland is a southern state. Anything south of the Mason Dixon Line is considered the south. Due to the liberal nature of the state it now identifies more with the north. Even the state song calls for the throwing off of tyranny and helping our sister state Virginia.

As a Marylander I approve of this video. The map was very accurate, Old bay is great on chicken wings, crabs, fish, and fries, and the stereotypes were pretty on the mark.
I feel like people make Baltimore look worse then it actually is
I'd like to agree with you, bit there really are parts of Baltimore that are neglected. The state, let alone the city, hasn't done enough to invest in the community to bring those areas back up.
@Águila701 Absolutely not! It's a great city, but it does have a serious problem.
I love how Baltimore looks but it's the crime rate that bugs me-
Maryland birthed one of the greatest TV shows ever, The Wire.
Proud of my state.
I’ve came from Northeast Baltimore and my grandparents moved in there from the 1940s. Seeing the history of the street they lived on has changed my perspective that the crack era has ruined Northeast Baltimore. I live in Randallstown now and I have to say that NE Baltimore you aren’t “bound to get shot”. The people there have a strong community.
Dundalk is still very blue collar, but the area around Cockeysville, in northern central Baltimore county, isn’t blue collar at all. It’s mostly upper middle class suburbs up there.
Parkville is still pretty blue collar too , yup northern Baltimore county is for the rich people most of those farms been sold and million dollar homes on them now
What is wrong with blue collar? Shame on you
Anywhere near Central almost northern Baltimore County are upper middle to upper class. Hunt valley, Phoenix, Jacksonville, Glenarm, Cockeysville and the Dulaney Valley area has a lot of old long money.
Hey now, southern Maryland (st Mary and Calvert) aren’t THAT boring. I love how it was entirely skipped over 🤣🤣🤣
Hey Lauren am sorry you don’t know me my name is David belote I was flipping through the comments sections when I came across your comments i decided to know you more hope you don’t mind
For real. To not even mention Leonardtown or Solomons makes me think he didn’t spend much time researching. Now I’m thinking his other videos aren’t very accurate.
I was born and raised in Baltimore. The city has been going downhill for decades. I have also lived in Montgomery County and a few years ago went back to visit just for the day and I was priced back into reality. Northwestern Baltimore County was where I was most comfortable until I moved away from the state. After almost 2 decades I return to Maryland I moved to the lower part of the mid-shore, Dorchester County. I loved it.
What drove me away from Maryland who is the overall political situation in the state, high taxes, had a chance to live close to family in Florida, a state with no personal income tax. I still have one brother living in Maryland and I expect in about a decade when he retires he will be moving to another state.
Let’s not forget that 15%of Montgomery county is the ghetto and a Hispanic/Jamaican slum right where Langley park and Takoma park is
Montgomery County Rocville's Lincoln Park was Bad in 80's 90's, Rockville Rocks 1987, but cleaned up these days, Gaithersburg 124 is a under rated Ghetto
Takoma Park is a hipster liberal white neighborhood. Langley Park is the hood not Takoma. A tiny sliver of Takoma Park right off 650 near the border with North Capitol DC is ghetto but if you drive up Carrol st to Takoma dc anywhere off piney branch south of Sligo creek pkwy it’s straight up gentrified

there is very humid summers and springs
and perfect fall
College Park and University of Maryland are in PG county....people seem to forget this. Its not called "just outside Montgomery County" its in PG. Say where it is...not what it is in proximity to. With the virus, the college town is empty, but I drive there to support some of my favorite restaurants in my county.
PG is such a big and diverse place with some beautiful homes. My family and I have never actually heard anyone call it ward 9, but why show just that rough area? I always hear "one of nations wealthiest black areas" and I feel comfortable and safe here. Been here since 98.
They are gentrifying a lot of the shady areas close to D.C. but PG isn't just the outskirts of D.C. either.
That rough snippet of PG is one part, and that pretty snippet of University of MD is another part of the same county. What does MOCO have to do with college park and UMD? This stuff is why PG gets no credit for the good stuff we actually have.
I just bought a home in the suburbs in a nice community with great neighbors and beautiful parks.

Baltimore born and raised. Guy got a lot right here but he missed the mark on some things
1. Politicians are reluctant to gentrifying baltimore city would cause rents would be astronomically high. They have already risen a ridiculous percentage over the past couple years and most people in baltimore city are living at or below poverty levels. If in 2018 your rent was 900, theres no reason why that same place should rent for 1300 two years later. Gentrification brings people with higher incomes in the impoverished hood seeing low rents and therefore landlords jack those prices up. Doesnt affect the gentrifiers, but affects the long term residents greatly. A vast majority of homes in the city are rental properties. Its not about losing support. Its about not having a place to live.
2. We did not climb the gates of M&T Bank to watch the ravens play, at least not to my knowledge and the clip. We climbed the gate to participate in the Superbowl celebration ceremony in 2012 because the stadium was at capacity and they closed the gates. It was a big deal. They shut down downtown and my job gave us a break to attend. But yes we are die hard ravens fans. I have a tattoo
3. You also left out that Maryland is one of the wealthiest states comprised of African Americans in the nation
4. The accents - The only two detectable accents we really have are Rural white accents (all of Maryland) and Black city accents (Baltimore City): The rural whites are the ones who say "hon'" (honey) and "wooder" (Water). We say "tew" (too) "urn" (iron, aaron, urn), "zink" (sink), "oinch" (orange). PG/MoCo/DC has their own lingo and it confuses us sometimes if we dont go to DC often.
Niiiice Mr Jones!!
I've lived in Glen Burnie all of my life and don't pronounce my words in either of those ways. My dad does though because he lived in Bmore City.
I lived in maryland my whole life and I domt talk like that and most people I know dont neither. From Caroline County
Baltimore residents absolutely have a very distinct accent, and yes the long time residents do say hon. Three distinct regions, I-95 corridor, Western MD, and Eastern Shore and would include the counties s of DC as essentially Eastern Shore

I've lived in Maryland most of my life, mostly in Montgomery County. This place SUCKS!!! Why you ask? Besides what was already mentioned, which is just scratching the surface, The traffic is ReDicUlOuS... Not just the congestion either, bad enough you can't get anywhere fast, they have the nerve too have speed cameras EVERYWHERE in places where you wouldn't think they should be, which is the whole point... Bad enough this place fleeces you on taxes, but to ad insult to injury they dive in your pocket even more, and the traffic lights our timed terribly, no sooner then you stop at a major intersection and sit for 2mins your stopping again... this can go on for several blocks... and one would think with all the revenue that's generated in this pristine wealthy suburb of neighboring Washington D.C. that it would have decent infrastructure, Wrong... the roads are horrendous and there always seems to be road issues and construction which adds more issues to getting around, and Not to knock the people of N.J. Philly or N.Y. but they have infiltrated this area, which has added to the traffic, crime and higher insurance premiums... You would expect this being such a high status profile area, that there wouldn't be on a short supply of anything at the store's, Wrong... This place amazes me that it's always out of things in the store's, supply and demand isn't the order of the day here... Then there's the all probing police state, there's so many different kinds of police here you'd think your living in a National Police Force... I could keep going on, but I think your getting the picture, this place is a Major Joke...
Yea been living here for a long time need a new place to live.

Ushsh Hshs; born and raised in Maryland. It's definitely a southern state as you can determine that by the way Marylanders react when it snows--especially the way they "drive" in the snow. The mere mention of the word "snow" in a weather forecast and Marylanders loot the grocery store like the 7th seal was just broken; all schools close and people are absent at their jobs because of the paralyzingly fear of the white stuff.
Driving on the Eastern Shore, right across the bridge into Virginia is a gas station that calls itself "where the south begins" so this checks out.
