The cobblestone streets of Fells Point might scream "tourist trap," but locals know it's actually one of Baltimore's most livable neighborhoods. Those historic rowhomes often hide surprisingly modern interiors, though you'll pay a premium for the location. The waterfront location creates actual breezes during Baltimore's oppressive summers, and the water taxi offers the most scenic commute in the city. Thames Street does get rowdy weekends (especially during football season), so look a block or two north for quieter options. What really sets Fells apart is the walkability – you can actually handle daily life without a car, from groceries at Broadway Market to nightcaps at Cat's Eye Pub where bartenders remember regulars' drinks.
