    "This is not a great neighborhood to raise kids in at all it’s one of the worst I’ve ever lived in.I can’t wait to get away and I will not look back and no I wouldn’t recommend this area either "
  • Alberto R.
    "A lot of people have dogs but the dogs bark. Stray cats in area, may be easy access to fleas and other parasites."
  • Katie D.
    "We are fairly close to popular Baltimore things. Just a stones throw from all nearby schools Towson, Johns Hopkins, MICA, Loyola, etc. We sit right next to Hampden and Belvedere Square. But we are also in an underdeveloped yet expensive part of Baltimore. It’s too expensive to reasonably live here but also ungentrified so we aren’t the cleanest prettiest place, but for important reasons of systematic racism, meaning some people call it “the hood.” With that said, my neighbors are nice and everyone I’ve interacted with on Greenmount have been very nice to me. "
  • Chernisebooker
    "My grandparents owned a home in this neighborhood for years. They were able to raise 5 children and watched 8 grandchildren in this one house."
