Asking folks everywhere to take a walk with #Baltimore. Why Baltimore? He's what the residents say:

Because of the crabs! #Baltimore

#Baltimore is a gritty, quirky, creative city filled with culture, unique neighborhoods & people who care for and about one another.

It has a small town neighborhood feel #Baltimore

Because of the people. There are so many people doing creative things and working to make things better. It’s really incredible how many amazing people are here. #Baltimore

Because of No One Left Unhelped, Mothers of Murdered Son and Daughters, The Family Survivor Network, Ceasefire, and all the other groups working to uplift the community. #Baltimore

Because people are working to resolve problems together- creating a tool library to give skills and tools to people who couldn’t otherwise afford to own a home, the “hack” system of grabbing a ride while taxis discriminates, and what Erricka has created with @BmoreCeasefire

Because of the pride of its natives with their unique accents (Hey Hon!) #Baltimore

Because of the arts scene—music, arts, theatre.
It’s history, diversity, an grassroots feel..It’s strong religious institutions...It’s quirkiness! #Baltimore

Because it is truly a city of neighborhoods. #Baltimore

Because it’s a historically significant city where big things happened, but often gets overlooked by places like DC and NY. #Baltimore

I love the community and how close-knit and familylike the city feels. #Baltimore
