I get what you’re saying, my son didn’t want to go to Jon Hopkins because of Baltimore but like I said, a rich guy can drive 40 miles away and be in the heart of luxury, and still close to a lot of things such as DC. The Potomac area is really nice not far from Georgetown and several other high-end areas.
Also, and I have family in Miami Beach, but Florida has a lot of shitty areas, a lot. And not everybody loves that brutal heat and humidity. The nice thing is when you have money you can get out of Dodge as much as you want and that includes Florida, Maryland, etc.
Just to be clear though I think Baltimore sucks.
