Starting Point: Light Street - goo.gl/maps/vResRgysAcv .
Baltimore is the largest city in the U.S. state of Maryland, and the 29th-most populous city in the country. It was established by the Constitution of Maryland[17] and is not part of any county; thus, it is the largest independent city in the United States. Baltimore has more public monuments than any other city per capita in the country and is home to some of the earliest National Register historic districts in the nation, including Fell's Point (1969), Federal Hill (1970) and Mount Vernon Place (1971). More than 65,000 properties, or roughly one in three buildings in the city, are listed on the National Register, more than any other city in the nation.[18][19]
Founded in 1729, Baltimore is the second largest seaport in the Mid-Atlantic.[20] Baltimore's Inner Harbor was once the second leading port of entry for immigrants to the United States and a major manufacturing center.[21] After a decline in major manufacturing, industrialization and rail transportation, Baltimore shifted to a service-oriented economy, with the Johns Hopkins Hospital (founded 1889), and Johns Hopkins University (founded 1876), now the city's top two employers.[22]
Baltimore had a population of 621,849 in 2015; in 2010, that of Baltimore Metropolitan Area was 2.7 million, the 21st largest in the country.[23][24]
With hundreds of identified districts, Baltimore has been dubbed "a city of neighborhoods". Famous residents have included the writers Edgar Allan Poe, Edith Hamilton, Frederick Douglass, and H.L. Mencken; jazz musician James "Eubie" Blake; singer Billie Holiday; actor and filmmaker John Waters; and baseball player Babe Ruth. In the War of 1812, Francis Scott Key wrote The Star-Spangled Banner, later the American national anthem, in the city.[25]
Almost a quarter of the jobs in the Baltimore region are in science, technology, engineering and math, in part attributed to its extensive undergraduate and graduate schools.
Economy
Once a predominantly industrial town, with an economic base focused on steel processing, shipping, auto manufacturing (General Motors Baltimore Assembly), and transportation, the city experienced deindustrialization which cost residents tens of thousands of low-skill, high-wage jobs.[164] The city now relies on a low-wage service economy, which accounts for 90% of jobs in the city.[165][166] Around the turn of the century, Baltimore was the leading US manufacturer of rye whiskey and straw hats. It also led in refining of crude oil, brought to the city by pipeline from Pennsylvania.[167]
As of March 2015 the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics calculates Baltimore's unemployment rate at 8.1%[168] while one quarter of Baltimore residents (and 37% of Baltimore children) live in poverty.[169] The 2012 closure of a major steel plant at Sparrows Point is expected to have a further impact on employment and the local economy.[170] The Census Bureau reported in 2013 that 207,000 workers commute into Baltimore city each day.[171] Downtown Baltimore is the primary economic asset within Baltimore City and the region with 29.1 million square feet of office space. The tech sector is rapidly growing as the Baltimore metro ranks 8th in the CBRE Tech Talent Report among 50 U.S. metro areas for high growth rate and number of tech professionals.[172] Forbes ranked Baltimore fourth among America's "new tech hot spots".[173]
The city is home to the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Other large companies in Baltimore include Under Armour,[174] Cordish Company,[175] Legg Mason, McCormick & Company, T. Rowe Price, and Royal Farms.[176] A sugar refinery owned by American Sugar Refining is one of Baltimore's cultural icons. Nonprofits based in Baltimore include Lutheran Services in America and Catholic Relief Services.

J Utah Show us some nice neighborhoods in Baltimore, not just the ghettos.
You weren't being honest you were being rude
I am guessing you never lived there. The video misses some of the best parts of the city, but nice, it brings back many memories.
I went to Baltimore for the first time this past summer 2016 beautiful city, very wide streets and open air space but also very busy. Bmore and Montgomery Counties have nice suburbs too. One thing I wish they would do is clean up their harbor's waterways. But plenty to see, do, and eat in Bmore. And a mall, cool boats, transit systems, and massive guitars! The I95 is very busy at rush hour.
Hakeem Mulholland were trying got a few trash wheels in the bay it'll take time though...
While traveling through Baltimore on the way to NYC, on the right, I saw the port. It looked expansive and spectacular. On the left, I saw a decent looking skyline with the stadium that the Baltimore Ravens play in. Aside from infrastructure issues and crime problems, every large city has unique qualities that make it distinctly appealing to visit or live in. Baltimore is no exception.
If it were not for the crime I would have never left that city.
Yeah no the crime is getting too bad now. You can't go a night without hearing gunshots. Even the nice areas are starting to get overrun. On game nights for the Orioles or the Ravens the cops are out in force around the stadiums so that people will be safe because its such a huge event for the city. Even the Inner Harbor, the most touristy part of the city, and Fells Point, the bar and party part of the city, are getting to be too dangerous. Its not a good city. I've lived in Maryland all my life, and I don't go down there unless I'm in a group of at least 3 other men so that we'd make a more difficult target
Lived there from 1974 until 2009. Great memories. Thank you!!
michael shepke where do you live now?
Thank you for doing this video. I miss B'mo and it was nice to see it again.
Glad you liked it Heather :)
I was born on Light St., in the summer of 46. Loved the smells in the Cross St. Market.
I went there this weekend and it's beautiful ! Great video !
Great food, music and sports!...just stay away from the West side...Great memories!
you really do a nice job thank you mr, utah!
I miss Baltimore and I watch this video. I have been there only a week, but it's unforgetable moment for me.
Heard Rat in Baltimore are so big, cat started carry Guns
They all moved south from NYC. The rats there are only big enough to carry pizza slices and Sprite now, lol.
Do you find it difficult to use plurals?
But the rats were huge in the early 60s too. Been There saw it.
😂
that was the mayor
Wow, beautiful city!! Can’t wait to move there next month. Looks quiet and peaceful.
Mitchell Michaud but it looks good here and I visited same downtown a month ago. I just arrived from west Africa and I have never seen a place as clean and beautiful as Baltimore.
Mitchell Michaud what about Arizona?
Mitchell Michaud Thank you so much for the advice. I will look into Colorado and Boston.
@Mitchell Michaud the only good part of American cities(most anyway) is their downtowns. I'm from Denver and I would know
I dont know if hes trolling or serious lol
GOOD MORNING BALTIMORE!!!
Sweet memories of baltimore...got married and had my first born in Baltimore. My husband used to work in fells point before we left to Canada back in 2003
Never expect meet Indonesian in this comment section
Its gotten bad. Whole city is dangerous now. I don't think there's a night without a gun fight. Even the Inner Harbor and Fells Point are getting overrun with crime. The only safe place in the city is near the stadiums on game days, when the cops are out in force to make sure nothing happens to the people coming into the city from the counties. Its really bad
Thank you for this video …I spent 4 unforgettable years in Baltimore …I miss Baltimore ):
kholood alqahtani what do u miss?
@@Lulue_90 Not being shot at?
@@alysmari3956 stupid comment
I was there in 2015!!!!Missing it a lot!!!
you really do a nice job thank you well mr, utah!
Great video thanks i ran in Baltimore for many years sometimes miss it put this on in front of treadmill :-)
Great work
Awesome! I like the firetruck horns like at 10:37
Love this video...
thanks for giving our city baltimore a tour
It’s crazy how Bmore and Philly look so much alike lol
Who else here after trump called it a shithole
i
Like LA, Detroit, Chicago,etc. You can drive around and avoid the bad areas if you know where they are. As someone who lives near Baltimore I can tell you Google maps took me thru some areas that it said were a faster route and it was really fucking bad. For every drug dealing thug in these areas, there are several other good people just trying to get by. I hope they get help.
CJ Xavier fuck Trump
Trump didn't call it a shit hole. He called the city rat infested. So did Sanders and many others, including a former Mayor. I think they were just trying to address a serious problem, to be helpful. Your hate is misplaced.
AHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you're funny
0:49 Omar, is that you?
looks like every big city ive been to. doesnt look any worse or better than hiuston , dallas, etc
You’re a gullible democrat. CZcams Baltimore dirty.
Wonderful with the birds at 26:32.
Nice tour on a late SUNDAY morning.

J Utah you did a gr8 job man thanks for video
Looks like a beautiful city
The most beautiful USA America fire
For the most part, the neighborhoods that surround Downtown/Inner Harbor Baltimore and neighborhoods in North Baltimore are the nice areas of town. Some are really, really nice. Yes, of course and unfortunately, the bad areas of Baltimore are really bad and I hope to see some real improvement in those areas. With that being said, there are really a good portion of Baltimore that is safe, clean and very livable. Unfortunately, there are other cities in the US that don't even have that going for them.
I lived in Baltimore for 13 years until i moved to Canada in 2012. Thanks for this video- it took me back for a while.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing :)
J Utah thank You
J Utah your first scene, theres this park on your right on light street called West Shore Park. This was my first job there as project engineer in 2005/2006. I built it kinda. Thanks again for sharing.
Zia Khan fucking dick moving to Canada shame on you not a real American Canada sucks so much compare Vancouver to NY, Las Vegas, los angels , Chicago etc
infinity jauriac My guess is you're 14.
Maryland is nice !
It is
Baltimore (the fun city)
I need to spend some more time there!
Charm(ing) city!🤔
@So'Landria Baltimore is boring asf stop lying
@@METALFACEDOOMXXXX liar I've been there
I've driven this so many times... at 2:19 I would have been freaking out trying to get around that cement truck to catch the green light onto President. Then, forgetting how tight that left turn is in the left lane, I'd almost get crushed. Ah... memories.
Baltimore looks very beautiful
Thank you.
you should have driven through Mt Vernon and drove around the Washington Monument, Federal Hill, Fells Point, Little Italy, and Harbor East. Not technically downtown, but, very important parts of the city.
Drive inside Baltimore city is a fun ride. The city is very good in the road and traffic rule is also here.
I've lived in Baltimore 49 years of my life and I have seen it look so less busy than 20 years ago. I would walk down East Pratt and Light St. It's not much happening. What ever happened to Baltimore? It needs to be brought back to life.
The crime rate!!. They are losing people because of the crime and lack of jobs in BALTIMORE City.....not surrounding Baltimore but in the city. New York will always be new York because it’s the financial district and DC will always be DC because it’s the politics district. Baltimore really doesn’t stand on anything. It’s similar to New Jersey.
My dad lived on that street in1966
The eastern waterfront area (Fells Point and Canton) has gotten very popular with yuppies, with new apartments projects. The near south-side (Key Highway), the same way. (Celebrity, Jenna Bush Hager lives - or lived there). The "Miracle on 34th Street" December light display, and 1950s style annual "Hon Fest" are both cool to see.
Im from south america RS and im a fan of Ravens!!
I like your videos because they are so relaxing.
Love your feedback! Thanks for letting me know :)
Did you follow me working that day? I swear this is my transit route! 🤔
Baltimore has one of the most beautiful skyline in America
mike jones Trust me, with 414 light street under construction (500) feet tall, it was the one with the crane in the first few seconds of the video.
Noah Atwood. I think Houston
Clorox Bleach definitely Chicago. I love looking up at our beautiful inspiring skyline. I say its the best in U.S. Even though NY has way more buildings its just that the NYC is old and looks rushed.
TheWorldIsMines 100 you should see what 414 light st looks like now. Search it up, it's almost topped out.
Noah Atwood. it's also one of the most violent cities, 615 people have been murdered just this yr.
WOW I have never been to the part of B'more where the trolley's are.
Wuow muy bonito Baltimore
Johns Hopkins is the 10th best college in America and Rolling Stone named it the BEST city in the country for underground music. Some of sucks, but a lot of it is cool--the northern areas are gorgeous inner city suburbs. The most historic listed buildings in America too--65,000 of them. And the cheapest east coast big city--I'm moving back from mean, bubba-fied Florida.
Sentí mareo de tantas vueltas
Nice city
Born there and stayed till I was 16 I miss alot of things there love me some crabs
Baltimore really doesn't have bad storms or anything like that
Who cares about storms when you can get killed any time there. I wouldn't go to that ghetto even if you pay me.
elena79rus Oh please, I've lived in Baltimore my whole life and look! I'm alive lol
All you believe is what you see on TV, stop watching the Wire. Come visit Bmor some time, you'll love it!
+ChuckEatsCheese
The fact that you're alive doesn't make it less dangerous.
What I'm saying is that it's much less dangerous than people think, it gets a bad reputation because of television. Granted, there are some areas of the city to stay away from, just like most major cities, but a majority of the city is very charming and friendly, hence the nickname.
+ChuckEatsCheese
I don't think it has anything to do with television. It has to do with official crime rates.
The Biggest City in the World
No exaggeration
The Best in the Nation
Baltimore is a very beautiful city
Beautiful town i will be there one day
James Madess If you knew what’s best for you, you would stay away. Don’t let this downturn video fool you. Once you leave the downtown area and venture into some of the communities, you enter at your own risk. You’re been warned.
don’t get shot at
@@xaviaaaa
Why ?
@@maxinef6654
Otherwise There is humans being who live in this city !!!! But i like to thank you for your warnings anyway 🙏🗽
I think I would like Balti More Than DC!
Rights its better
+J Utah what car do you drive and what camera do you use? :)
miss my city baltimore is so beautiful and amazing driving can be annoying but there's no where else I'd rather be
🇺🇬 Ugandan Knuckles 🇺🇬And Kampala in Uganda is so much better, right? Lol.
Say it louder some dumbshits don't know the difference btween reality n well produced cable series!🤔🤔
Yeah, I miss it too.
Love USA
It’s crazy only a few turns and the city would’ve looked completely different
Fr
Umm, you can say that for just about any democratically run city. Baltimore may have its problems - and it does! - but don't act like the whole city is hell - because it's not.
Google Harbor East, Canton, Mount Vernon, Harbor Point, Federal Hill, Fells Point, Roland Park, Hampden, Locust Point, all good sections of the city just to name a few.
Baltimore needs new leadership to get the crime and drugs out of the city, and to fix the education system -and it starts from the top. They're all Crooks who just look out for themselves - and the city residents keep voting them back in office. It's a continuous cycle, and until the people wake up - things will stay the same.
This video game looks really realistic.
I was born there in 54 left in66 I went back in 1990 to see if Nick's sub shop was still there man it's a getto area now
way down in the hole
my hometown
William 1213 Is Baltimore actually as bad as people say?
MetroDetroit - Minecraft & More Not even close, it's a lovely city.
Please can I get robust I don't have a lot 4 robust yes
Johnny Hayes nah i’ve been there dozens of times, it ain’t that bad you just gotta be careful not to go to the bad areas, aka the west side
B-MORE CAREFULL !!!😁
Your driving made Me nervous!! Plus, too many lane changes!!
I lived in Baltimore for 30 years, miss it some times
Mary White how do you miss a city infested with crime?
George Washington , when I lived up their 40 years ago it wasn't bad
Notice how you didn't fancy a drive up N Liberty St and down West Lexington. Would of shown you a completely different story in the space of 2 blocks
15:55 5-6 blocks from where i live...nice vid...thanks
Isn't dangerous?
@@lusidruya4937 it is
@@lusidruya4937 the violent crime is mostly confined to some inner city neighborhoods..where i live (called mount vernon) is relatively safe...that is true in most cities...the government tries to make it harder for law abiding citizens to get guns...they/we need them sometimes...keep the violent criminals in jail and things would be better.
Me and My family lived in Baltimore Maryland for two Years .
Ta bonito
Nice city.
Baltimore is beautiful. The best city in the world.
Lol your opinion
was that all baltimore its huge looks good to.
it's only 95 square miles!
this is a great looking city - had no idea this was here
prosperous & orderly - from watching The Wire I had no idea this existed
Everybody shows you what they want you to see. The Chamber of Commerce and David Simon show you different parts of the city - but they are both the same city. In fact, "Wire Baltimore" and "Chamber of Commerce Baltimore" aren't even very far apart in some places. It takes some effort to show one and not the other!
prosperous and orderly rofl
Many parking garages in the downtown area, Guessing, auto commuters from the outskirts...
At the beginning of it all is that Howard Street? Where the protesters happened in 2015 I just don't remember Baltimore ever since 2014
What? No squeegee kids? No people jay-walking across the street (slowly) while looking at you as if YOU'RE the one crazy for driving down the street?!
Hey ,I lived in Baltimore Maryland ,And yes the Rats are as Big as Cats .And they really Very big .And the cats are even scared of them by.
17:48 the brownstone on the right is where my late grandmother's cousin used to live!
19:30 and the apartment block on the right is where the same grandmother lived! To the left is the Walters Art Gallery.
27:00 Thuuug Laif
Sunday morning? Where is the traffic?
Most folks I know don't go into the city, I'm in B'more County.
Mercy Hospital is where I had my son in 1992
is getting shot considered normal everyday thing here?
nice city tbh
google west baltimore.. its horrible. this video looks nothing like baltimore in real life. very, very VERY bad danger city
Real Tory true but not the entire city, but if they bring more jobs n improve the city Baltimore could be way better
coffee 7 ii
Real Tory and east Baltimore
eu não vejo nenhum youtuber falando sobre os transportes urbano nestas cidades,obvio que carro é bom excelente!!mais e que precisa se virar co transporte coletivo por um tempo???!!!
Translation: She is asking, why isn't more public transportation shown here. Baltimore has only one metrorail line, and one light-rail line (which is shown near the end here). Governor Hogan recently vetoed financing for a second metrorail line.
Only things I know about B-more is “The Wire” and the Ravens and Johns Hopkins University.(Big fan of The Wire and Ed Reed btw) Are there any place or landmarks to visit for tourists?
Camden Yards the Orioles Park.... Inner harbor.... and HOODS
Edgar Allen Poe house, natl aquarium, opera house, mt. vernon....
Fort McHenry, train museum, but if you go there, please be careful.
Baltimore has the best chinese food in the USA. Certified!
Irie mon. I be movin here from Jamaica wit me family to Baltimore soon mon. We be opening gun cleanin shop. Hoping to having ur business mon.
Yo, this city keeps Tylenol in business.
Baltimore gets a lot of bad press, but I can say this - from this video...it looks a helluva lot cleaner than fucking Filthadelphia, PA!
mark darnell lol facts
Look 7 times before crossing the street 😄😄
This is only like a quarter of what Baltimore has to offer. You missed a lot. You should do some night time driving next time. Maybe also add a description and get a closeup of important landmarks/features as you pass by them. Unless you've been there, no one would realize that was the Inner Harbor you passed by a couple of times.
The truth is the senator is the prime person responsible for helping, not the president. It amazes me that Baltimore's senator Elijah Cummings, cares more about the Mexican border than the district that he is responsible for. Elijah Cummings can change how Baltimore is ran.... At lease that is what he gets paid to do.... Lets hold the right people accountable.... D. Trump could have chosen better words, however, it is still truth..
This channel is not about politics. Please shut up
He's dead who cares.
@@koolone3791 I wrote this 6 months before he died... and by the way... the humans that live there cares...
I actually want to live here, maybe I shall.
GUYS OMG BALTIMORE IS DANGEROUS DO U UNDERSTAND A LOT OF MURDERS HAPPEN THERE SO THE CITY IS NOT GOOD
Are you kidding? Even Detroit might be a safer choice.
You're actually incorrect baltimore is not dangerous its parts of Baltimore that are dangerous for example I live in Parkville i've lived here for 35 years now and there's a place basically a hood about a block-and-a-half from my house but all the police all the safety people and this town do their best protect us I don't appreciate you sitting there saying Baltimore is a bad City if you go down to the Inner Harbor during the daytime it's a beautiful thing you know that thing called The Star Spangled Banner national anthem you know where that came from that came from our city I was born and raised in baltimore and I intend to stay here no matter how dangerous it gets. Now I do it a lot of dangerous things have happened allowed murders that happened I understand that but don't sit there and say Baltimore is a bad place it depends where you go in Baltimore and what time it is.
OMG WTF ARE U DUMB?BALTIMORE IS DANGEROUS IDIOT WATCH THIS AND YOULL SEE #worstcitiesinmaryland
It's a hell hole, take it from a former 43 year resident, and Baltimore Police officer. I will never return to Maryland. High crime, high taxes, high rent and home prices, the typical plagues of a Democrat controlled state.
Damn, Trump wasn't kidding.
trueboss926 tf you mean? Doesn’t look any different from most American cities.
@Buddy's Gaming Channel wow okay. hi.
anyways, if you call this part of baltimore a "shit hole" you might as well call new york and most big cities shitholes.
@@MrTehoTeho ikr? If Trump is shitting on one American city, then he is shitting on all. Let alone. Proving that he has not made America great again
@@kota3192 Anyone with proper vision can certainly see that DT/Inner Harbor Baltimore is not rubbish.
He knows trash very well, some say he was born from a forgotten hamburger in a WM incinerator plant.
Where was that siren coming from?
Never mind. It was a fire truck.
