Should I move to Baltimore or stay in Orlando?

Alright, I'm originally from Kansas City and Crime rate is something to consider — Baltimore sits at 1,858.7 per 100K. Average temperature is around 57°F, so the weather is moderate. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Am I wrong here? Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The weather takes some getting used to. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. It's changing fast — some good, some not so much. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.

I've been here 15 years and I love the pace of life here. The thing nobody mentions is traffic. It's affordable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is improving.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Maple Ridge side vs the Downtown side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

No regrets on my end..
