Baltimore is often called "a city of neighborhoods". Each neighborhood has a different vibe, amenities, lifestyle, attitude and character. It's part of what puts the charm in Charm City. Our residents have lots of choices of fun and convenient neighborhoods, but here are some of the more common neighborhoods that residents choose for their homes.
Federal Hill is a historic neighborhood primarily full of traditional rowhomes with some newer apartment complexes sprouting up. Lots of nearby bars and restaurants. It's very close to the Inner Harbor, I-95, the stadiums and the hospital. The eponymous hill is a revolutionary war battle site that is now a park with wide vistas of the Inner Harbor. Many residents and some attendings choose to live here.

Many of these apartments have a number of amenities like game rooms, pet services, rooftop pools, concierge service, etc.
