honestly nothing compares. when I get homesick I go visit relatives or friends in NY/NJ. I appreciate baltimore for what its good at (more lowkey unpretentious vibes + its own kind of cuisine), not for what it could imitate about other places. if you want bootleg NYC go to chicago

really wish we had more fuckin trains though

To be fair, you are living out in the suburbs

That's the Baltimore compromise

We live downtown, and it’s much easier to walk places. I take my car out maybe once a week, more often in the spring/summer to take my dogs on hikes outside the city. But yeah, definitely doesn’t compare (at all) to public transportation in NYC.

Same here. I get so frustrated, I just walk as much as possible.

Makes me miss Mount Vernon.
