Everyone in Baltimore is very friendly. As someone who was once closed minded about the city (thinking everyone was rude) it really does have a certain charm to it. It wouldn't be as close knit or outward as, say, La Plata; but it's definitely friendly as far as cities go.

I got that too! I remember when I was in Baltimore on the light rail I asked someone a question about a certain stop and like half the train car gave me directions it was great.

It's very strange, because growing up in Texas all you ever heard was how rude NY and places like that were. Don't get me wrong, lots of gruff people and assholes and people in a hurry but...I've been up and down the East Coast and I don't think I'd blanket call ANY of those places rude. Mayyyyyyyybe DC, and even they weren't so much rude as just socially *cold.* People in NY and Philly have helped me out whenever I needed it. Call me crazy, but Boston was actually friendly! (just in a very in-your-face way)
