I must make a recon of the Baltimore area where I want to move, check out some real estate. It's the green 'burbs for me, folks, out near the beltway--not the nasty downtown area. I will be taking I95 south out of Queens to B'more. I have a choice between July 15-19 of travel. Which day is best to drive down, and which daylight hours would be best to travel down?
Thank you for any knowledgeable input!
Don’t stop. Keep going.
All I know is it is 200 miles.
From the frying pan into the fire.
What in the world are you thinking?
There are other places just as bad to live but none any worse.
And all you're concerned about is what highway to take and what hours to drive?
You've got bigger problems than just the logics in getting there, trust me.
Shaking my head in disbelief.
First you need months of therapy to figure out why you would even think of such a move. Then head for Kansas.
I moved to Baltimore suburbs ten years ago. Pm me if you want to discuss what I’ve found
****I have great Jewish friends in the Reistertown area****
Historic Reisterstown is charming, with Glyndon and Carroll County - horse country close by. However, I had a drug addicted neighbor who vandalized my cottage and stole property while I was out of town. Police suspected him, but had no evidence. Sold house and moved out. Great neighbors across the street are selling their Victorian mansion and a few others have also moved. Sad times!!!!
God Bless.
Thanks for that information. I never used Wayse other than for highway driving.
Good to know.
You’ve been out in that Beltway too long my FRiend.
Queen’s, to Baltimore. That might be one of the most desperate and sad questions I’ve ever heard.
Don’t come to Texas. It’s hot, there’s Rattlers and Mexican Bandits everywhere. And Comanches. And the food is very unhealthy. Tons of red meat.
Absolutely. You need to stay off off I-95 if at all possible. If you are interested in areas south of Balmer, consider 301. I used to go that way to get to Pax River, and it was pretty easy.
I thought Waze allowed an avoid ghetto option
LOL—you couldn’t pay me to live anywhere else!
If Waze has this option, we forgot to use it.
Yep and the no vacancy light is turned on anyway
5am Sun.
I’d take 295 just to be able to swing by the old Howard Stern rest stop. Unfortunately you can’t take a leak there anymore unless you do it San Fran style.
Far enough doesn't exist anymore. The near the Beltway in Baltimore has merged with near the Beltway in DC. Take off and nuke it from space. The green field will be inhabitable again in about 10,000 years.
Give me some information about your housing search. I will be glad to fill you in on the greater Baltimore area and where the best places to move to are located. I suggest you leave around 9:30 AM which will put you in the Baltimore area before before 2 pm.
11 P.M. till 12:30 A.M. is optimum departure time...
