OK .. Some of this may come off a little negative. But we both grew up in Bmore( I grew up near Edmondson Ave, went to Edmondson HS etc ) so we both know the deal here.
- Its a reason why everything in Montgomery County is so damn High, it keeps a certain crowd out. No thing to get an apartment in Baltimore for $400 - $800 a month. I'm paying $1,500+ etc.
- I now live around mostly Asians/Indians/Whites/Latino's/Africans. no type of community like that in Bmore.
- It didn't dawn on me until last week when my moms asked me " Do they ride Dirt Bikes out there?" , I was so used to hearing them all day. I didn't even notice. But with my 8 yrs of working out here and 4 months living here, I have yet to see somebody riding on a dirt bike .lol
- I used to always watch WBAL and usually within the first 5 minutes or so, they go over how many people were shot over the weekend & Deaths etc. Started watching the news out here, It's usually about some House fire / Government / Traffic or upcoming activities. I've yet to see " X number of people were shot over the weekend"
-Sad to say, Very few parks in Bmore etc. No shyt I was looking for one to take my son to and found about 10 parks for my son all under 3 Miles away with Basketball courts.
- It's practically dead out here after 8 - 10pm.
- I used to always hear the cops, now its more so the fire trucks.
- Yet to see a Junkie walking the streets. I'm sure they are out here though.
- You have your wanna be thugs out here, but you can tell most of them are trying to be something they are not.
- You have some house robberies here, but no real killings( which is practically zero compared to where we come from ).
Its just different, so damn different that I feel funny sometimes when going back to Baltimore. But for all the dumb shyt that happens, it's still my real home. If you've never been to Montgomery County, think of Columbia but alot bigger.
On another note, what part of the west side is Bink from? He looks familiar and I know I heard his name before.
