Annapolis is a dieing city. Those of you from here may know that is do to excessive building and overpopulation. Annapolis at one time was the capital of the united states where Washington stepped dowm from the army. You have the NAval Acdamy ,St. Johns College ,various ice cream places, alleys without names, and more sailing schools in one city then the rest of the country. Well if u wanna see the old annapolis come now while its still there.
Annapolis is the capital: seriously baltimores not the capital.

We're surrounded by water, snobby "parkies", and catholic school kids, crabs and beer are our diet, we wear flip-flops year round( yes even in the snow), we know what Ego-Alley is, we know that we could go downtown to ACME in high school and get served no questions asked, we know about Hellish Commisioning Week, and we can spot a Midshipmen a mile away out of his uniform, we know about traffic, and we love to travel by boat, we know that the best crabs in Naptown come from Jimmy Cantlers. We are collar poppin, khaki, and rainbow wearin beach bums.If you don't know someone directly, you know them through a good friend. Naptown is not small but it's not big..... we are what we are.
This is our Ode to Annapolis
Annapolis is simply AMAZING.

Annapolis is the capital city of Maryland located in the Baltimore-Washington Corridor, serving as a suburb to both major cities. However, unlike other run-of-the-mill suburban cities, its capital city status and preserved historic downtown harbor make Annapolis a very unique place; one that its residents are very proud of. Much like Baltimore, its residents enjoy crabs and beer, old bay, sailing, and all things uniquely centered around their access to the Chesapeake Bay. It is also not uncommon for Annapolitans to cheer for the Orioles and Ravens and take pride for them as their own. But, despite the similarities to its northern, much larger and commercialized neighbor, Annapolis has retained a much more "small town" feel and has its own set of renown establishments. Most notably, it is home to the United States Naval Academy. Annapolitans anticipate the Blue Angels and often take of work or school to go see them each year. The USNA students, "midshipmen", are often seen walking around in uniform in historic downtown. The city is also home to the St. Johns College, a liberal institution designed around studying the "great works". The city's historic downtown is decorated with brick streets and colonial buildings and contains the State Capital Building of Maryland, which is often used as an iconic symbol for the state. The city serves a rather unified demographic of upper-middle class citizens with some variation and tends to be, for this reason, a slightly "preppier" city in comparison to its neighbors.
Definitely a great place to be and a wonderful city that has found a balance of being a small-town suburb but a national renown jewel.
Annapolis has all the benefits of a small suburban city in addition to the benefits of being a city a itself. Truly a unique place whose preservation is vital to its life and culture.

Despite the common misconception that it is Baltimore, Annapolis is Maryland's capital city and one of its pride and joys. Regarded as the sailing capital of the world, Annapolis is a city near the mouth of the Severn River. The water way that comes into downtown is the famous Ego Alley, home to a lot of very expensive motorboats but a shockingly less number of compitent boaters. Remembered largely for its brick streets and many old colonial buildings, Annapolis is a modern city that remembers its past. Housing in the city is extremely expensive, as the land value is very high. Like any Maryland water city it loves its crabs but unlike Baltimore, crabs refers only to the sea creature. Also (and most notably) Annapolis is home to the famous United State Naval Academy. The uniformed 'mids' are often founds walking the streets. Oddly and almost comically, just up the streets is St. John's college: the ultimate liberal arts school whose entire curriculum consists only of the 200 'great' books. The 'johnnies' contrasts the mids with long hair, beards, tye dye shirts, and lack of shoes. Once a year, the two colleges compete in a croquet tournament. People wise, Annapolis tends to attract the preppier Marylanders as spotting people who don't own at least one Ralph Lauren Polo is rare. Parking is hell on Earth.
All in all, a great city. One of the greatest in the world.
I want some crabs and no way am I going to drive around for 45 minutes looking for a parking space- lower the boatlift and start the engine! We're going to Annapolis!

amazing. if you want a smoke ride when youre in annapolis, you go to davidsonville or bay ridge. if youre into the booze, well youre going to robinwood or probably your parents who love to buy you and your friends alcohol. if its up the nostril, you know plenty of kids from st marys who will oblige. always shroom in quiet waters park. always go to crown for the freshest blunts. two dollars says you drive an explorer or a jeep cherokee. lax RULES, even if you quit in high school. lowrys gas sales on sunday and wednesday. you play the lottery for beer money but when you lose youre like FUCK mom can i have 20$? its life.

Annapolis is like nowhere else on earth. We probably have one of the highest concenrtrations of individual wealth in such a small area. The wealthy and elite dominate this place. We live in Murray Hill and Sherwood. We drive bmws, audi, mercedes, and range rovers to be modest. Bored housewives wear million dollar insured jewlery with sweatpants and chanel purses. Kids go to private schools, of which everyone knows St. Marys is the best. Money comes through business and inheritance. Kids wear lacoste polos and sweatpants with 3,000 dollar david yurman jewlery. In order to appreciate the shocking power and elitism of this city, you can only do it by hearing about it. Although not widely known, our influence is far reaching. Were not racist, we just hate clay street and people who put ghetto housing on the water. Were just the best city in the world.
OMG they just donate 8 million dollars to St. Marys. What? Oh thats right youre not from Annapolis, you wouldnt understand.

Crabs, lax boys, st. Mary’s, ice cream, mids, and other crap. Everyone who lives in Annapolis knows the pat Buddy’s is a musty tourist trap, that’s is really nasty old crabs that aren’t even from The Bay. Everyone knows cantlers has the best crabs. Lacrosse boys, do i need to say more? St. Mary’s only private school in Annapolis, Annapolis area christian is nasty and sucks at sports. The rivalry between st. Mary’s and Severn (the richer, more snobby) is strong. And the Battle of the Severn is like a religious holiday. Lots of ice cream places, Annapolis ice cream co is for the tourists, kilwins is a chain (bleh) STORM BROS FOR THE WINNNNNNNN!!!!! Summer is humid an hot as hell. Everyone has been to at least one navy game in their life, those are big deal here. Don’t forget the people who give up their front yards to park your car in for 40 bucks. All the rich kids to AYC for every holiday meal and are little sailers. If you don’t know how to pick a crab, ur dead. Don’t have you boaters license before 14, ur dead. Don’t play lax, or at least haven’t tried, ur dead. If your parents don’t let u leave school at half day on Blue Angel Day, u must be new. If you like army, you will be murdered by the rest of us. And don’t get me started on commissioning week traffic, it’s a literal nightmare.
The only things that matter in life in Naptown:
Sports: lax and sailing
Holidays: Blue Angles Day, Navy v Army Football games
Food: crabs and old bay
Restaurants: Cantlers, and storm bros
If you can’t parallel park, you can’t live in Annapolis
