About Baltimore

includes Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Harford, Howard and Queen Anne's
counties, as well as the city itself. As of 2005 the region was home to more

and its suburbs have prospered as well. Howard and Anne Arundel counties have
become very affluent and rank nationally in terms of per capita family and
