Yeah Cockeysville is like families and people in their 50s-70s. We have rowhouse neighborhoods that would give you a bit of space and not put you in a high rise. Canton, Fells Point, upper Fells point, patterson Park all have close access to patterson park which is one of the largest parks in the city. They’re also walkable areas with bars/restaurants/entertainment. Canton/brewers Hill has many grocery stores and shopping (including big chains) much to my dismay, there is a suburban style shopping center here called Canton Crossing so y’all could still have that.

Yeah this is kinda exactly what we don't want. It starting to sound like we'd be better off putting our best effort into trying out the city. I think we'd come around to it, just growing pains/foreign

It will definitely be a change of pace, but a good one to experience. Especially childless in your 20s. I grew up in the city, moved to the burbs for high school and college and then moved back to the city after college. It was an adjustment for sure but one that I’m glad I made. I love living a car light lifestyle and if I didn’t work in construction, would live a car free lifestyle. Living in a dense, walkable, mixed use neighborhood means everything is within a short walking/biking radius to me. No more dealing with traffic, frankly being forced to drive to the burbs on occasion now is just stress inducing. And because the he neighborhood we live in has been improving for the last 20 years, now we have 2 fantastic schools here (that frankly are better than most of the schools in the burbs) so now staying here even with kids is a quality proposition.
