Housing

While the Hospital does not provide on-campus housing for house staff, there are numerous attractive and affordable places to live within easy commuting distance. Throughout the city, many older neighborhoods, some dating back to 1799, have been carefully restored and now offer a diverse mix of housing types to rent or buy. For those who prefer a more suburban environment, there are many residential communities within 20 minutes of the Hospital.

Map of Baltimore Neighborhoods

Fells Point, just south of the Hospital, is one of the few remaining urban waterfront residential communities on the East Coast. The rowhouses and apartments of neighborhoods such as Butcher's Hill and Canton provide exceptional views of the harbor and city skyline.

South and west of the city, the historic neighborhoods of Federal Hill, Otterbein and Ridgeley's Delight have undergone extensive renewal in recent years and now offer a charming mix of row home and apartments, both old and new.

Mount Vernon, an elegant community of streets lined with restaurants, shops and galleries, is the cultural and historic heart of Baltimore City. Once the home of such notable figures as Emily Post and George Peabody, Mount Vernon today offers a variety of historic townhouses, modern high-rises, condominiums and apartments.

Bolton Hill, to the northwest, recalls Baltimore's Victorian era with stately 19th-century brownstones and tree-lined streets.

The neighborhoods surrounding The Johns Hopkins University present an eclectic mix of students, professionals and families. Housing ranges from the brownstones, row homes and high-rises of Charles Village to the garden communities of Roland Park and Homeland. A shuttle service runs daily from the University to the medical campus.

Farther north and west of the city, but still within easy commuting distance of the Hospital, the suburban communities of Towson, Mount Washington and Pikesville offer a wide variety of housing, including highrise and garden apartments, townhouse complexes and single-family homes.

Wherever you choose to live, a touch of open space is never far away. More than 30 parks are scattered about the city from the rolling landscapes of Druid Hill Park, Patterson Park and Lake Roland to numerous community commons and squares with fountains and statuary.
