On the other angle , Baltimore has the highest property taxes in the state , the highest crime in the state , high water bills , higher insurance rates , lower appreciation than surrounding counties . And the lowest performing public schools in the state . 

My  best view of Baltimore is in my rear view mirror .  ( I grew up in Balto , and go into the city 2 to 3 times a week , I invest in the counties for the above reasons )
