With a great central East Coast location, lively neighborhoods, and plentiful employment hubs, Baltimore is a fantastic place to call home. Also known as “Charm City,” Baltimore offers big-city charm with a small-town vibe, capturing the best of both worlds when it comes to renting your next apartment.

Living in the Baltimore metro area puts the best of the East Coast at your fingertips: commute easily to D.C., take weekend trips to Philly, and enjoy scenic views of Chesapeake Bay. Or stay local to soak up the exciting restaurants, craft breweries, and museums. Because of the small-town feel, you’ll feel like part of the local community in no time.

Baltimore is packed with neighborhoods ranging from cute to quirky, like Hampden. Packed with colorful row houses and vintage shops, you’ll know you’re in Hampden when you arrive! Then there’s Federal Hill, Baltimore’s charming harborside neighborhood, which offers great Inner Harbor views, a collection of traditional brick row houses, and a bounty of culture. Just 10 minutes from downtown Baltimore on the Purple Line, you can also access Federal Hill from the Baltimore Water Taxi.

Or explore further out into the suburbs, like Glen Burnie to the south or Aberdeen to the north. The entire Baltimore area is easily accessible thanks to well-connected bus, rail, and city circular routes, and these neighborhoods offer more of a suburban feel while offering the proximity to the city of Baltimore and all the and conveniences that come with big city living.
