It’s easy to see why and how Baltimore, MD earned its nickname of “The Greatest City in America.” That, and the “Crabcake Capital of the World” certainly cover it, but living in Baltimore has more to offer than tasty food. Read on to discover the five key reasons we adore the city.

1. Employment Opportunities

One of the most important things to consider when looking for your ideal place to live is whether you can get a job there. You can be extremely successful in Baltimore no matter what field you work in, but the city places a particular emphasis on available jobs in science, engineering, technology, and math. Baltimore was ranked among the best 25 cities to find a job in America, and numbers like that don’t lie.

 

2. Weather Variety

The South has outdoor entertainment opportunities all year long, but it’s hard to feel the Christmas spirit without snow; on the other hand, the North is perfect for winter activities but by the time February rolls around, you’re about snowed-out. Enter Baltimore, which offers the perfect blend of all the seasons to keep the variety holding strong from the warm summers and spring to the perfectly chilly winters.

 

3. Natural Beauties

If you’re not already a fan of nature, a year spent living in Baltimore will turn you into one. When spring and summer show up, you can visit Sherwood Gardens for free to see more than 80,000 tulips, cherry blossoms, azaleas, wisteria, magnolias, old English boxwoods, and more flora of the city. For more gorgeous blooms, take a walk around the mansion and landscaped gardens of Cylburn Arboretum and the Mount Washington Arboretum for a multitude of trees.

4. Local Sports

Baseball, football, soccer, and more– Baltimore, Maryland has it all, no matter what particular sport you may favor. The city was the birthplace of George Herman “Babe” Ruth, the baseball legend himself. As well, the Baltimore Ravens, champions of the Super Bowl XLVII, also reside here, as well as several pro-soccer teams such as the Baltimore Brigade and the Baltimore Blast.

 

5. Healthcare

When the worst happens and you’ve got a medical emergency on your hands, you want one of the nation’s best healthcare providers at your doorstep. John Hopkins Hospital, which is ranked as the best hospital for patients of all ages, is based in Baltimore and is ready to provide the very best medical service, including emergency care, specialty care, primary care, children’s care, and pharmaceutical services. They’ve got all of your health needs covered.

If you’re looking for a city that’s among the best in the nation to find a job in, has rotating seasons and all the activities they bring, is bursting with flora and fauna, has some of the country’s most talented sports teams and players, and is ready to give you the best care when you’re at your worst, look no further than Baltimore, the city that has it all.
