I’m a native New Orleanian that just moved to Baltimore a month ago after nearly a decade in DC. I never felt like I fit in DC but Baltimore always seemed to be calling my name. As I’m immersing myself into my new surroundings I’m quickly beginning to understand why.

I lived in NO for a few years and then moved to Philly and did not fit in. Friends there always told me to move to Baltimore. They were so right, it’s so similar (art, music, culture, water) but it’s got an unique East Coast vibe.

My wife had the same experience. She lived in and around NO for over a decade. Moved to DC, where we met, and then we both moved to Baltimore. She felt so much more at home in Baltimore than DC. Friends would visit her and say how much Baltimore reminded them of NO.
