Reply to comment by Bmoreravens_1290 in Opinions on Niche's Baltimore Neighborhood ratings? Any neighborhoods you strongly disagree with the ratings on? by AyyScare

Wyman Park gets an A+ for nightlife but a C- for public schools despite being served predominantly by some of the best in the city? lol wut?

I could be wrong here, but I think it gets a C- because it is only considering public schools, it doesn't take into account the Baltimore School Choice program, and I'm also not sure how it determines the school it rates the score on.

Assuming it works directionally like GreatSchools/Zillow... It will tell you schools in Wyman Park get a 6/10 for Elementary/Middle and then a 1/10 for high school. That would put you somewhere in C- territory.

So yeah. Not ideal. All of these websites would potentially scare prospects looking to move to these neighborhoods with families...
