Why Our Residents Love Baltimore

 

The Baltimore Inner Harbor

Living in Baltimore

Conveniently located between D.C. and Annapolis, Baltimore is a vibrant hub of culture, arts, cuisine and community, as well as a hotspot for healthcare and biotech innovation – that's why so many Sinai residents end up making Charm City their forever home. Baltimore offers all the benefits of a major metropolitan city, but with a unique “Smalltimore” charm beloved by lifelong locals and newcomers alike.

"... Baltimore has a quirky character all its own. Just ask its denizens, who will tell you just how great Charm City is without engaging in a show of one-upmanship."
