“If you watch HBO’s police drama “The Wire,” you might think that Baltimore is filled with drug dealers and crime ringleaders. But in truth, the city has attracted a different breed of misfits: artists.”
NYT pretty psyched about Baltimore’s white neighborhoods and social spaces.
What’s not to like about white neighborhoods? I mean, especially the ones that draw white artists into their creative, affordable housing. Because they’re tired of relying on their middle class parents for help. And I don’t care whose toes I’m steppin’ on by saying so.
