About Baltimore
Baltimore, Maryland’s largest city, is located in north-central Maryland along the Patapsco River estuary, about 15 miles (25 km) upstream from its entrance into the Chesapeake Bay—the largest estuary in the United States. Sitting on the fall line between the Piedmont Plateau and the Atlantic Coastal Plain, the city features diverse terrain ranging from sea-level harbor areas to elevations of nearly 480 feet (146 meters) in the northwest.
Baltimore lies approximately 40 miles (64 km) northeast of Washington, D.C., forming a key part of the Baltimore–Washington metropolitan corridor. Major highways such as I-95 and I-83, along with the Port of Baltimore—one of the busiest ports on the East Coast—make the city an important center for shipping, tourism, and waterfront commerce.
