Is Baltimore a part of the DMV?
For those that do not know, DMV stands for DC, Maryland and Virginia. With that being said, you could assume that because Baltimore is in Maryland it would be a part of the DMV. Some people would disagree. If you think of the DMV as simply an area, then of course Baltimore would be included. But, if you think of the DMV as culture then Baltimore would stand alone. Baltimore has its own slang, fashion, and music that differs from the rest of the DMV, including other parts of Maryland. The most common difference between Baltimore and the rest of the DMV would be the music. While most people from Baltimore listen to Club-Mix, people from other parts of the DMV mostly listen to Go-Go. Although people outside of the DMV may think that these two music styles sound the same, they are totally different! Debates and discussions on this topic have gone on forever, and the question still remains; is Baltimore a part of the DMV? Technically, it is. If Maryland is included in the DMV then naturally Baltimore has to be. In my opinion, Baltimore is the black sheep of the DMV. The ugly duckling that grew into a beautiful swan! But maybe i have a bias opinion, I am from Baltimore. :) ...So answer the poll and tell me what you think!
