Seventh state admitted to Union. Population, ~5.5 million. Has one of the country's largest metro areas (Baltimore-Washington corridor), one of the larger public universities in the country (UMD), and once proud sports franchises (Orioles). Has a dual identity, as it's both a Mid-Atlantic state and a Southern state, because it's south of the Mason-Dixon Line.

A cute little state, you usually don't look at it first on the map. We aren't super southern, though 75% of the inhabitants think we are, and we aren't too northern. And due to common misconceptions, we do have accents, it all depends which part you're in, or if you just moved here. Some say things like "Warshington" or "wooder" and we round out words, like "Baldamore" instead of "Baltimore". And most of us don't say the "D" in Maryland. If you notice the way most poorly educated school children talk, they talk extremely fast, verbally tripping over their words. Maryland school children don't know what a "school district" is, because Maryland's school systems are by county. The teenagers in small towns have their local hangouts, and their code names for their towns. Maryland has historical places, and ghettos. Majority is white, but we have places where theres lots of blacks, a few Hispanics, especially in Montgomery county. Most the whites reside in Carroll and Frederick county. All Marylanders know that PG county is the ghetto. The vacationing spot everyone goes to is Ocean City, where the kids wait and go to Senior Week, and get busted with possession of alcohol under the age of 21. Maryland also has their beloved state troopers. Frederick is the largest county in Maryland, probably because it's all farmland. Maryland is a pretty cool place to live, and it's not all boring. Come visit us, we love company! Come eat our blue crabs. !
Robber: Yo, gimme all yo money
Robee: I'm only a fisherman! All I can give you is some Maryland blue crabs!
Robber: Ok, gimme, dem, I love dat crabs.

"Crabcakes and football- that's what Maryland does!" - Wedding Crashers.
This quote from Wedding Crashers is very accurate, however, it is more lacrosse that Maryland does rather than football.
Maryland is full of extremely rich people as well as poor people. It is the home of Baltimore's beautiful suburbs and its' horrible ghetto as well as the very prestigious suburbs of Washington D.C.
Rural Maryland exists far out from the cities and their suburbs- very far out. It consists of many beautiful farms with acres of land and many large homes for those people who want to live far from the city. Southern Maryland contains most of the rural areas, however, right next to the bay is hardly farms, but more bay houses and neighborhoods. On the eastern side of Maryland across the bay, besides the beautiful bay homes, there is lots of land and farming, lots of sailing, and lots of crabs.
Maryland is also the "lacrosse capital of the world". All over Maryland breeds unbelievably talented lacrosse players- both male and female. The many public and private schools all over Maryland have extremely good lacrosse programs and players from Maryland schools often go play at the top Division One teams.
Maryland is the home of Baltimore's extremely beautiful suburbs as well as Baltimore's very corrupt ghetto in the city. The suburbs of Baltimore consist many extremely good private schools- many of which are single-sex. These schools also have the best high school lacrosse programs in the country. Some of the well-known schools include: St. Pauls School for Girls, St. Pauls School for Boys, Gilman, Roland Park, Bryn Mawr, Loyola Blakefield, Maryvale Prep, Garrison Forest, McDonough, Friends School, Boys Latin, and many, many more. The suburbs of Baltimore are also filled with beautiful homes with lots of land and very cute neighborhoods. People live right next to the happening city or further out for more beautiful homes.
Maryland is also the home to the very prestigious suburb of Washington D.C.- Montgomery County, MD. Some of the well-known suburbs of Montgomery County are Bethesda, Potomac, and Chevy Chase- where very rich people live right next to Washington D.C.
Montgomery County contains one of the best public school systems in the United States. It also has some of the best and most famous private schools in America.
Many of these prestigious private schools are single-sex. Many of the highly reguarded ones include: Georgetown Prep, Stone Ridge, The Landon School, Holton-Arms, St. Albans (DC), National Cathedral (DC), St. Andrews, The Bullis School, The Potomac School, Sidwell Friends (DC), Georgetown Day School(DC), and Georgetown Visitation(DC).
Bethesda, MD is also known as the most educated town in America.
Maryland is the home of the Chesapeake Bay. The Eastern Shore of Maryland is a beautiful place to own a house on the Bay. One of the most famous places to have a home on the Chesapeake Bay is St. Michaels, MD on the Eastern Shore. There are many cute towns on the bay known for their sailing and ovcourse their crabs.
Annapolis is the capital of Maryland and it is a very cute, small city on the Bay not far south of Baltimore and not far east of Washington D.C. This is where many of the sailing takes place and it is a beautiful place to own a home on the water. Severna Park is a well-known suburb of Annapolis just 10 minutes away and is placed on the Severn River.
Maryland is a wonderful place to live whether you want to live in a prestigious suburb, hectic city, small city, small town, rural farm, or a beautiful home on the shore.
Come to Maryland if you want a good education, crabs, sailing lessons, lacrosse, a nice home, a lot of land, or a city
