The city is a major U.S. seaport, situated closer to major Midwestern markets than any other major seaport on the East Coast. As of 2006, the population of Baltimore City was 640,961.[10] The Baltimore Metropolitan Area, which includes the city's surrounding suburbs, has approximately 2.6 million residents. Baltimore is the largest city in the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area (CSA) of approximately 8.1 million residents. Baltimore's metropolitan area is the 20th largest in the country. The city is named after the founding proprietor of the Maryland Colony, Lord Baltimore in the Irish House of Lords. Baltimore himself took his title from a place named Baltimore in Ireland, which is an Anglicized form of the Irish language Baile an Tí Mhoir, meaning "Town of the Big House." Baltimore in County Cork was the seat of Lord Baltimore. Baltimore became the second leading port of entry for immigrants to the United States during the 1800s. Once an industrial town with an economic base in manufacturing, Baltimore's economy has shifted primarily to a service sector-oriented, with the largest employer no longer Bethlehem Steel but Johns Hopkins University and Johns Hopkins Hospital. Because there is also a Baltimore County surrounding (but not including) the city, it is sometimes referred to as Baltimore City when a clear distinction is desired. read full wikipedia reference about Baltimore, Maryland OTHER POPULAR DESTINATIONS IN MARYLANDAll available cities in Maryland Aberdeen Annapolis Baltimore Bethesda College Park Columbia Edgewood Frederick Gaithersburg Hagerstown Laurel Linthicum Ocean City Rockville Salisbury Silver Spring Towson |
