Baltimore has a high crime rate. Don't venture to far away from the Inner Harbor and even there it's not as safe as it used to be. I live only 25 mi from B'More and haven't been there in years. Not too safe & very expensive to park

Haven't been in years? That says it all. The crime rate is DOWN in Baltimore, and you can walk around without much worry in the majority of the city. Just have your wits about you, like ANYWHERE. I live right in the city and love it, but recently had a friend visit and we took her all over the inner harbor without a care in the world.

I live about 20 minutes from Baltimore and visit the Inner Harbor quite often,especially during the summer. It is lovely there. As for crime, I have never had any unpleasant experiences. As long as you stay on the beaten path, you are unlikely to have any problems.

This summer will see the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812. The harbor will have tall ships and battle re-enactments. Be sure to see the Baltimore Orioles play at Camden Yards. Don't miss the Walters Art Gallery and the Baltimore Museum of Art,both of which have free admission.
